I am currently a PhD student in aquatic entomology at the University of Florida and Florida A&M University. My research focus revolves around the phylogenetic systematics of Nearctic Polycentropus (Trichoptera: Polycentropodidae). I have broad interests in natural history, taxonomy, ecology, evolutionary biology, and invasion biology of a wide range of taxa, but especially aquatic insects and fishes. Please see my ResearchGate profile (linked here on the left of the page) for an updated list of publications.
