My thesis research focused on how size class distribution and fecundity for Mysis diluviana was changing over the course of many aquatic invasive species introductions to the Lake Champlain Basin including alewife. I also collaborated with researchers at the William H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute to establish point and non-point sources of pollution within the Little Chazy River, a relatively understudied tributary to Lake Champlain that flows through areas of dense agricultural development. I am an avid all-season hiker and camper of the Adirondacks and love to be outdoors.
