Research Areas:
Fungal Biology
Research Interests:

I'm interested in understanding the impacts of fire regimes on soil microbial community composition and plant-soil feedbacks. My current research focuses on understanding how fire frequency affects the belowground processes that drive post-fire community assembly and regeneration in a longleaf pine ecosystem in southwestern Georgia. 

Education:

2020- Admission to Ph.D. program in Department of Plant Biology at University of Georgia

2017- B.S. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at University of North Carolina at Asheville
