Hi everyone! I’m a PhD student in biology at the University of New Mexico. I’m interested in macroecology, community and ecosystem ecology, human ecology, metabolic theory, biological scaling, and biological stoichiometry. Current projects include developing a model linking stoichiometry to metabolic theory, investigating the spatial scaling of species body size frequency distributions, and examining the environmental factors influencing geographic patterns of cultural and linguistic diversity.

Outside science, I enjoy playing the guitar, sports, hiking, snowboarding, and a good movie or book. I’m really excited to get to know and work with such a diverse group of people and to visit a new place!
