I develop mathematical and computational models of complex biological and social systems to understand how individual-level behavior and evolutionary dynamics give rise to emergent population-level outcomes particularly under strong interventions. My research examines how targeted interventions—policy measures, genetic and chemical controls—perform under ecological and evolutionary constraints  to inform decision-making and management..

I am currently a researcher at the UC Berkeley, and have previously held postdoctoral positions at the Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity (University of Oldenburg) and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology.
