Giving a seminar later this week at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire!! Looking forward to connecting with students and sharing my research!!

Last week, I was invited to share my postdoctoral research at the @umdentomology.bsky.social Department Retreat. We are finding that neighboring tree diversity impacts leaf phenotypic expression and induces trade-offs against different consumers. More coming soon!!

I am ecstatic to share that I will be joining the Department of Entomology at the University of California, Riverside as an Assistant Professor in Chemical Ecology and Behavior of Insects in January 2026! Really looking forward to this next chapter and thankful for all of the support along the way!

I had a great time sharing recent work at the Ecological Society of America Annual Meeting in Baltimore, MD!! Always nice to meet new folks and reconnect with others!! @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social @umdentomology.bsky.social

🚨📢 If you study insect behavior and plant volatiles, contribute to our special collection in Environmental Entomology, "Plant Volatiles in Insect Pest Management and Sustainable Agriculture" !! Due Aug 15; DM/email for details & please share!! @entsocamerica.bsky.social @oliviabernauer.bsky.social

I graduated!! Endless gratitude to my PhD advisor, Dr. Anjel Helms, who is an amazing scientist/mentor/friend/colleague. Very thankful for a great experience at @tamu.bsky.social in the Entomology Department. In January, I will start a postdoc with Dr. Karin Burghardt at @univofmaryland.bsky.social!
