Bio


I am currently an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Stanford. I am a community ecologist broadly focused on the spatiotemporal dynamics of marine communities. My postdoctoral research is focused on how coral reef communities recover from disturbance and how they will respond to the effects of climate change. This research is conducted within the Moorea NSF funded Long Term Ecological Research program where I examine how spatiotemporal heterogeneity in coral communities can promote community resilience. This research leverages oceanographic modeling with coral reef ecology to understand how coral communities recover following disturbance. My scientific interests revolve around understanding the complex architecture of ecosystems and how applying holistic understanding of ecosystems can broaden conservation and restoration approaches.
