Hello and welcome!  My role in the Department of Zoology is to be an aquatic ecologist and vertebrate biologist.  I assist with Principles of Zoology I and II labs and lectures and am lead for the upper-level courses Aquatic Ecology, Ichthyology, and Zoogeography.  My research interests involve fish ecology, conservation, and biogeography with emphasis on how fish-assemblage composition relates to environmental conditions and histories.  Explore this site to learn more or contact me with questions or ideas.
