About Me
I am a postdoctoral fellow, outreach coordinator, and evolutionary biologist at the Museum of Biological Diversity and EEOB Department at The Ohio State University. Currently, I focus on citizen science and community science programming and assessment work. My postdoctoral research focused on a fine scale investigation of the alcohol metabolism pathway and how changes in regulation within this gene network affect phenotypic plasticity. My doctoral research studied how organisms adapt to environmental challenges. Whether I am working on scientific experiments, curriculum development, or large-scale community science events, I bring extensive organizational experience and a methodical articulation of science communication goals to my work.
