Biography

I am an evolutionary ecologist who uses marine invertebrates to understand how organisms adapt and acclimate to rapid environmental change through non-genetic mechanisms, particularly transgenerational and early life plasticity, and the eco-evolutionary consequences of these changes. I explore these “legacy effects” using field and laboratory experiments in coastal systems, including rocky shores and oyster farms. Please visit my website to find out more.
