Biographical Sketch

I’m an invertebrate ecophysiology who uses physiological metrics and oceanographic data to evaluate species-specific environmental sensitivities, identify habitat suitability, improve restoration strategies, and estimate ecosystem services contributed by suspension-feeding populations. Much of my work has been collaborative and varies from small to large interdisciplinary partnerships.
