I am a biological anthropologist, field primatologist, and behavioral ecologist. I use data on the behavior, demographics, genetics, and endocrinology of wild capuchin monkeys to understand various aspects of sociality. I have nearly three years of field research experience following wild white-faced capuchins (Cebus capucinus). My primary focus has been on developmental aspects of sociality (kin biases, differential social integration, ageing). I am also interested in the application of methods from quantitative genetics to understand the  potential for popultions to respond to selection, including from social environments and pressure from climate change.
