Welcome!

I earned my Ph.D. at Oklahoma State University, where I was the Dr. Fritz L. Knopf Doctoral Fellow in Avian Conservation, co-advised by Dr. Courtney Duchardt and Dr. Scott Loss. My research focuses on avian responses to anthropogenic threats, including climate change, urbanization, and land-cover change, within the broader field of global change ecology and conservation.

I am passionate about teaching, outreach, and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in academia. My long-term goal is to become a professor at an R1 institution, where I can further scientific research and foster an inclusive academic environment.
