I completed my undergraduate work at Oregon State University, where I helped with the research of salamanders, butterflies, and fungi. I completed an undergraduate research project looking at the affects of wildfire burn severity on ponderosa pine seedlings and their mycorrhizal fungi.


As a graduate student I looked at the affects of postfire savlage logging on soil biogeochemistry, focusing on soil bacteria. During that time, I was a crew leader on several projects as well as a Biological Sciences Tech at the USDA Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Research Station.


I am currently a member of the Cronn Lab at the USDA Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Research Station's Corvallis Forest Sciences Lab. This is part of the USDA's Pacific Northwest Research Station's Landscape Genetics and Ecology Team.
