Research in my lab falls into two broad themes - individual projects change frequently, so please contact me for the most current openings. Students can expect to gain field skills and laboratory experience as a member of my group. In general, I am interested in mentoring hard working, dedicated students with strong quantitative and science communication skills.  Experience with remote fieldwork is considered a plus.  I expect to have open positions in my lab in the 2018-2019 academic year.
