Description of Research:

As an evolutionary biologist my research covers a wide array of topics, from intra-cellular processes to development to life-history evolution. All of this work is motivated by an interest in understanding the origin and resolution of trade-offs organisms face in various aspects of their lifecycle. In order to understand these trade offs, I generally employ a modeling approach that involves the nesting of mathematical models at different biological scales.
