      I am an entomologist, but I am also very interested in science communication and science policy. I currently teach the non-majors biology course \u201cConcepts of Biology” and the required course for biology majors, \u201cModes of Scientific Communication.\u201d In the past, I have taught group senior research and a science policy seminar class for the M.S. program in Integrative Biological Diversity. I also currently mentor a student on research to explore invertebrate biodiversity on plants in the family <\/span>Podostemaceae<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

      My past research experience is in agroecosystems in Iowa and California and with tick-borne disease prevention with Dr. Connally.<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

      I am working with local partners to develop a research program to understand emerging invasive insect species and the effect of invasive plants on insect biodiversity.<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

      I enjoy sharing my love of insects through outreach efforts at local schools and nature centers, often with the help of WCSU students, and I serve in several roles for the Entomological Society of America.<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

      One of my main projects in the past year has been as a co-author of the 7th edition of the textbook,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Entomology and Pest Management<\/span><\/span>, which will be available by Fall 2021. I am also involved in efforts to increase diversity in STEM. I enjoy collaborative work and am always interested to meet with students who have research interests that intersect with entomology.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\n\t<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
