Bio: 

I graduated from Washington College in 2019 with a B.S. in Biology and Environmental Science, followed by a year of assorted AmeriCorps programs. During this time, I worked with numerous taxa including birds, mammals, macroinvertebrates, fish, plants, and more! In 2022, I graduated from James Madison University with a M.S. in Biology. My research assessed stream restoration in the Chesapeake Bay watershed using biotic stream condition indicators and their relationship with surrounding land use. Prior to joining the Map of Life team, I completed two terms with the NASA DEVELOP program.
