Summary: 

Hello! I recently completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Guelph in Biological Science with a minor in Geography. I am continuing my education at the University of Guelph with a masters degree in Integrative Biology, where I will be researching the outcome of urban grassland regrowth to determine if a functioning arthropod community can be established. I worked in the Steinke Lab as a work-study student in my undergrad and loved the research topics and lab culture so much that I decided to pursue a masters within the lab.

I am excited to meet my colleagues and network within CBS, all while building on my professional connections and research skills. Please reach out if you have any useful insight on my research or have advice for a masters student :)
