I study how organisms integrate environmental cues at the molecular level and how that integration cascades to bigger processes impacting whole organisms, communities, and ecosystems. I study these processes using plants and their microbiomes as model systems. This makes me use a whole suite of tools and theories from ecology and molecular biology, but,if we're being honest, might be more indicative of my stubbornness to figure something out than a coordinated training effort.

I'm currently an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow in the labs of Drs. John Stinchcombe (University of Toronto) and Vasilis Kokkoris (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam). I completed my PhD in Dr. Michelle E. Afkhami's lab at the University of Miami.
