PhD candidate studying Crotalus genomics. Previously worked as a wildlife biologist in southern California and south Florida, hence the distribution of my observations.

My research background includes ecological and physiological studies of reptiles across fire-affected habitats in Southern California, as well as long term monitoring. I hold a B.S. in Biology from UCLA, where I completed a senior thesis examining post-wildfire responses of native snake species.

Always interested in connecting with other naturalists, especially those focused on herpetofauna.
