I’m a Research Consultant for the Hoban Conservation Lab. Using population genetic data, I work with other members of the lab and folks from different botanic gardens and arboreta to inform the conservation of rare plant species.
Currently, I’m working on a project seeking to measure the correlation between geographic and genetic metrics of ex situ collection breadth. This is part of an IMLS grant which seeks to improve how botanic gardens utilize genetic data. I’m also conducting genetic analyses on red oaks distributed across Texas.
I received my Master’s of Science degree at Utah State University, where I worked in the Pearse Lab and the Wolf Lab. More information about the research I did in each of these labs can also be found below.
