Hi there,

I'm originally from New England but spent six years in LA getting a Ph.D. in Geobiology at Caltech. I now hold a NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellowship at CU Boulder. My research focuses on the microbial ecology of environments that lack oxygen and the unsung bacteria that make our planet habitable.

​

In July 2027, I am starting as an Assistant Professor at UCLA in the Department of Earth, Planetary, and Space Sciences. I am actively looking to fill roles for graduate students and postdocs, so please get in touch!
