About Me

I am an Assistant Professor of Environmental Science at Queens University of Charlotte in North Carolina. In 2007, I earned a Ph.D. in Ecology from the Joint Doctoral Program at University of California, Davis and San Diego State University. By training, I am a community ecologist focusing on small mammals, invasive plants, and their interrelationships.

Research Interests

Most areas of conservation biology interest me, particularly the effects of invasive species on native communities. I am also very interested in pollination ecology and have a growing desire to conduct research on local bat populations.

I see research as a vital part of students' education and am committed to helping students pursue the research that most interests them.
