Hello! I'm a Ph.D. candidate in the Resasco Lab at CU Boulder, a USDA NIFA Fellow, and a Global Sustainability Fellow. My research focuses on urban ecology, insect biodiversity, and causal inference. I am interested in how human land use impacts different insect groups and, consequently, the ecosystem services they provide in coupled human-natural systems. In 2026, I received the Murray F. Buell Award for Excellence in Ecology (ESA press release). My research aims to improve the resiliency of urban agroecosystems, increase equitable access to fresh produce, and promote environmental justice in cities.
