Research Interests

My scientific background is in the taxonomy and biogeography of mayflies (Ephemeroptera), with expertise on the North America fauna. My current focus is on undergraduate education, specifically those in the introductory biology series here at UC Davis. Our students come from all backgrounds, and I work with our team to provide the best experience for these students.
