BIO

I am an interdisciplinary ecologist interested in how different parts of an ecosystem --- species, environment, and/or humans --- work together to produce the ecosystem we observe, and how we might influence that ecosystem. I integrate empirical and computational approaches to study the mechanisms that drive the structure and dynamics of complex ecological networks, and what that may mean for the future.
