I am interested in interactions between organisms and their chemical environment. I previously was a NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellow working at Friday Harbor Laboratories with Dr. Emily Carrington. I received my PhD from the Graduate Group in Ecology working in Dr. Brian Gaylord's lab at the UC Davis Bodega Marine Laboratory. My background is in both biology (BS, CSU Fullerton) and chemistry (BA, CSU Fullerton).

I am an undergraduate researcher in the Ninokawa Laboratory, working towards my bachelor's in chemistry. I am interested in the effect of light and algae on the varying parameters in Mercenaria mercenaria and Crassostrea virginica.

I provide important assistance during field work by ensuring sites are well-sniffed. I am interested in the behavior of small mammals such as squirrels, chipmunks, and rabbits.
