About Me

I am from Baltimore, MD and received my BS in Biology from St. Mary's College of Maryland in 2019. I then pursued a PhD in Biological Sciences at LSU, which I recently completed Spring 2024. My research career began at St. Mary's in the Malisch Lab, where I studied stress physiology in mountain songbirds in Tioga Pass Meadows, CA. In 2019 I joined the Lattin Lab, where I investigated the neural circuits that mediate neophobia behavior in wild-caught house sparrows. I am excited to have recently started a postdoc position at UC Davis studying bee cognition in the Muth Lab this Fall!
