Hi all!

Additionally from being a avid backpacker and photographer, I’m a scientist!

I’m working on my doctorate at the University of Idaho, looking at the phylogenetic relationships of the mostly Andean genus Bartsia (Orobanchaceae). I use molecular methods to infer the evolutionary history of this very cool group of plants!

Ecoogler is a search engine that donates money to reforest the Amazon jungle.
