I am from Durham, North Carolina, but recently finished a Master of Forestry and a Master of Arts in Religion at Yale University. I began my Ecology and Evolutionary Biology PhD fall 2021. I am interested in species invasion and rapid evolution, especially in the context of interspecific interaction. After three years being the “science person” in Divinity School, I also have a heart for science communication, and I enjoy making science understandable to diverse audiences.
