About

I come from a computational background and am passionate about applying quantitative methods to address biological questions. I have a particular soft spot for reptiles and amphibians. My current research interests center on the role that color plays in the animal kingdom, particularly aposematism, and the genetic interactions underlying its expression. My work routinely employs machine learning, statistical modeling, and computer vision. I am actively seeking opportunities to expand these skills, with particular emphasis on probabilistic modeling, while deepening my understanding of ecology and evolutionary biology. I am especially drawn to the probabilistic genetics of complex traits and aim to continue research at the intersection of these disciplines. Please reach out if you have any ideas, I am always eager to collaborate on new projects, including those more broadly in applied mathematics or computing.

I am also an avid wildlife photographer and herpetoculturist. Always happy to talk about this as well if it interests you!
