Welcome!

I'm a PhD student in the Ecology and Evolution Program of the Biology Department at the University of Pittsburgh. I just started in the Kuebbing Lab where I study plant ecology and invasive species.

I'm a Pennsylvania native with a passion for natural history, particularly that of my home state. I've worked on projects focusing on deer herbivory, hemlock woolly adelgid, and most recently the PA rare plant Baptisia australis var. australis. Conservation is really important to me, and I hope to one day work for a conservation or management agency. Learn more about my past research here!
