Successfully Defended Ph.D.!

I have successfully defended by Ph.D. in Ecology from Duke University! I will be spending this summer wrapping up projects from my dissertation, and will share updates on those projects as I wrap them up. For those who are curious, you can see a recording of my public defense talk below.

This fall, I will be starting a National Academy of Sciences Science Policy Fellowship. I am very excited to work with organizations in the Gulf of Mexico region who are thinking about climate resilience alongside local communities. I would like to continue working in applied ecology research, and am excited at the opportunity to learn from people with policy experience about where, when, and how research is effectively incorporated into their work.
