I'm an ecologist interested in all aspects of wildlife disease, particularly as they relate to animal movement, resource use, parasite sharing, and anthropogenic changes. I have worked in several different systems, from large herbivores in Kenya to tiny mammals in Madagascar. My recent work also integrates human movements and behavior in thinking about zoonotic disease. I joined CSU as an assistant professor in January 2023, and am thrilled to be teaching wildlife disease ecology online. Before coming to CSU, I completed my PhD and postdoc at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and my undergrad at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill.
