Welcome!

Picture

I am a biologist that integrates physiology and biophysics to predict how organisms respond to climate change. I am developing novel approaches in ecological modeling to integrate behavioral, physiological, and evolutionary responses that can minimize the ecological impact of warming. To do so, I blend empirical approaches with theoretical tools to make biologically-relevant predictions.
