Research Interests
I aim to work in the conservation of freshwater ecosystems, with interest in ecosystem and community ecology, food web ecology, and nutrient dynamics within wetland, lake, and river systems. More broadly, I am interested in how humans impact aquatic environments and how conservation and management strategies can reduce these impacts. I hope my research will contribute information and knowledge to influence these management decisions.
