About

My research interests revolve around freshwater ecology and conservation in wadeable streams with an emphasis on statistical modeling. I am currently investigating 1) the impact of a dam removal on freshwater mussel species, and 2) habitat associations for an imperiled freshwater mussel species in an occupancy and abundance framework.
