| I'm a fifth-year Ph.D. student in the [[UC Davis Genetics Graduate Group|Genetics Graduate Group at UC Davis]], and a member of the [[Jasieniuk]] lab in the Department of Plant Sciences. My research interest is in the evolution of invasiveness in plants through hybridization and changes in gene expression. My study organism is Himalayan blackberry, an introduced species from Europe that is highly invasive on the West Coast and is known to hybridize with native and other introduced species. | | I am a postdoc studying the genetic diversity and population structure of ''Miscanthus'', a perennial grass being developed as a bioenergy crop, in the lab of [http://cropsci.illinois.edu/directory/esacks Dr. Erik Sacks] at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. |

| I graduated from Dartmouth College in 2004, having majored in Genetics, Cell & Developmental Biology and minored in Chemistry. From June 2002 to June 2004 I did my undergraduate thesis research in [http://www.dartmouth.edu/~tjack/ Thomas Jack's lab], where I worked on developing knockout mutants for a gene family putatively involved in floral development in ''Arabidopsis''.

| From November 2004 - July 2006 I worked at the [http://www.ars.usda.gov/Main/site_main.htm?modecode=19-10-10-00 Grape Genetics Research Unit] in Geneva, NY. Under the direction of Amanda Garris, I worked on gene cloning and QTL mapping towards an understanding of light detection and winter dormancy in grapevine.
