I am an aquatic ecologist, with special interest in stream ecology, benthic invertebrates, and habitat requirements of native fishes. I am interested in the application of evolutionary theory to understand ecological phenomena, especially population regulation in mobile animals that show spacing behavior. I also serve as Assistant Director for Academic Programs for SNR.
