AREAS OF INTEREST
I am interested in mosquitoes as vectors of pathogens. I am most interested in human habitats that support mosquitoes and how these habitats affect mosquito behaviour and evolution. For my MS research I will be investigating the ecology of mosquito establishment in the Greenville and Atlanta zoos. Initially, I will focus on the biotic and abiotic factors that can be used as tools to predict larval distribution and succession. However, all things parasitic, zoonotic, or hematophagic hold my attention.
EDUCATION
