About Me
I am a fish ecophysiologist currently conducting postdoctoral research at the University of Minnesota in Dr. Gretchen Hansen's lab. My work investigates how temperature shapes the physiology, ecology, and conservation of aquatic species.
My research spans a broad range of taxa and systems, from Chinook salmon in California rivers to Antarctic notothenioids beneath the Ross Ice Shelf, Great Lakes coregonids, green and white sturgeon, and threespine stickleback."A common thread runs through all of it: rigorous measurement of organismal physiology, the challenge of scaling that physiology from the individual to the landscape, and the urgent question of what it means for species facing a rapidly changing world.
Outside the lab I enjoy sci-fi, mountain biking, watercolor painting, and escaping into the wilderness for camping, biking, hiking, and birding.
