I am a research postdoc in Jay Lennon's microbial ecology lab (http://www.indiana.edu/~microbes/) at Indiana University and a former PhD student in Ethan White's Quantitative Macroecology lab (http://whitelab.weecology.org/) at Utah State University. I am interested in a diverse array of research topics including ecological theory and modeling, microbial ecology, numerical constraint-based approaches to ecological patters and common patterns in nature, combinatorics, conservation, population ecology, natural history, and herpetology.
