About

I am a Professor at Dominican University where I have worked in the Department of Biological Sciences since 2014. Between 2012-2014, I worked as a Visiting Assistant Professor at Oberlin College. Between 2010-2012, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the laboratory of Alex Cordoba at the Institute of Ecology in the National Autonomous University of Mexico. In 2009, I completed my doctoral studies in Greg Grether’s lab in UCLA’s department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.

I regularly teach undergraduate classes in Evolution (our capstone course for Biology and Environmental Science majors), Animal Behavior, Ecology, and Introductory Biology. I have also taught Invertebrate Zoology and Research Methods in Molecular Biology (but only teach these occasionally).
