they/them

I have a background in entomology from the University of Dayton, where I studied intersection between insect communities and human dominated environments such as urban gardens, solar fields, and agricultural spaces that intersect forests. I’m using these skills to complete my thesis work on pollinator community networks in New York City urban gardens and how urban typologies impact these networks. I also love art and nature, and I keep myself sane by playing piano, doing photography and embroidery, and spending time with my partner and three cats.
