About me
I am an evolutionary biologist and ecologist. I am interested in the diversity of life. Why is life so abundant? What are the processes that structure this abundance in space and time? As a PhD candidate in the Stoddard lab at Princeton University, I am studying the diversity and evolution of plumage colouration in parrots.
