Starting 2026-27, I will be a TENURED Associate Professor! This would not have been possible without teachers, mentors, and students I've had along the way, or the support of my friends and family. Thank you all! Excited to continue teaching, mentoring, and doing science at @provcollege.bsky.social!

Was excited to see my Puget blue butterfly photo used in the @knkx.org coverage of the recent Science paper on butterfly decline. 🦋 This paper came out of my post-doc lab and the authors put A LOT into it--check out their important work! www.knkx.org/environment/...

Butterfly populations have declined, but ecologists say they're resilient

A comprehensive study of U.S. butterfly populations shows dramatic declines in most species, but Pacific Northwest ecologists say swift recoveries are possible.
