Research Interests

I am broadly interested in the evolution of social behavior, development, and aging. More specifically, I am interested in how early life experiences impact developmental trajectories and contribute to variation in sociality, reproduction, survival, and aging health later in life.

Research Interests

I am broadly interested in the ways that animals adapt to the specific demands of their ecological niches, both on a genomic and a metagenomic level. To this end, I combine genomic information with dietary data or behavioral observations to understand the genetic and/or behavioral changes that allow a species to survive in its environment. I enjoy working with big data, coding, and data visualization.
