I am PhD student in the Cassidine Ecology and Evolutionary Genomics (CEEG) Lab lead by Lynette Strickland at Boston University. There, I study how genomics, ecology, and behavioral dynamics contribute to the maintenance and distribution of color polymorphisms in the tortoise beetle subfamily, Cassidinae.
I am also a self-proclaimed insect nerd.
