I am currently a M.S. student at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK. I'm fascinated with speciation and behavioral ecology. My research examines the behavioral mechanisms that limit gene flow between species. I am interested in how mate choice isolates closely related species that have overlapping geographic ranges. Specifically, I'm investigating mate choice in hybrid offspring of sympatric species of Old World mice.

I'm a big advocator of outreach and its many impacts on the greater community.
