I am a fifth year PhD candidate in Dr. Suzanne Alonzo’s lab in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I am interested in the coevolution of females and males using a combination of empirical work and mathematical modeling. For my dissertation, I am researching how females influence the evolution of male behavior via cryptic female choice (females bias fertilization to specific males) and how cryptic female choice affects speciation. I am also an independent R Shiny web app developer.
