I am currently a scientific aid technician for the USDA-ARS in the Bee lab in Logan, Utah.
I received a bachelors in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the university of Rochester and I intend to pursue graduate school in the future. I have an interest and passion for the outdoors and for insects - specifically native bees in North America.

Currently I am helping assist a study to monitor the rare Perdita meconis (Mohave poppy bee) in the Clark County, NV area.
