PhD Candidate, Integrative Biology, University of Guelph
I am an ecologist and entomologist with experience in habitat restoration, environmental analysis, insect taxonomy and genomics. My PhD research investigates plant-insect interactions in agroecosystems. I have 11 years experience with research in insect community ecology, conservation and scientific communication.
I work at the University of Guelph's Centre of Biodiversity Genomics. One of my PhD chapters focuses on analyzing the DNA of spider gut contents to explore their potential as bio-insecticides in agriculture.
