I am a Ph.D. student at Auburn University, where I work with arachnids. I previously completed a M.S. at Auburn University working with termites, and a B.Sc. at McGill University in zoology. I have worked as a technician (mostly with arthropods) at the Redpath Museum, Royal Alberta Museum, USGS PIERC Kilauea Field Station, and most recently, with the Auburn University Entomological Museum.
