Using a 43-year dataset to quantify changes in community structure historically (pre-invasion) compared to during and after a boom of African Jewelfish (Rubricatochromis [Hemicrhomis] letourneuxi). Oecologia. 

During my PhD, I led our lab's portion of an Everglades restoration project monitoring the aquatic faunal (macroinvertebrates and fishes) response to restored water delivery into Everglades National Park following restoration construction that filled in sections of an adjacent canal. We saw communities trend towards reference areas in an adjacent region from long-term monitoring data as water delivery increased. Restored water delivery also increased connectivity between the marsh and adjacent canal facilitating movement of larger fishes, including several invasive species. 

Also during my PhD, I led faunal monitoring (macroinvertebrates and fishes) in 2021 for one field season of a multi-year effort to understand faunal responses to construction of a new bridge along US-41 allowing more water to flow into the northeast corner of Everglades National Park.
