I am an ecosystem ecologist, specializing in plant ecophysiology and biogeochemistry. My research explores how plant traits feedback to soil nutrient cycling and gas emissions across a range of ecosystems from deserts to rainforests. My current work with Professor Cory Cleveland at the University of Montana investigates plant and invertebrate controls on biogeochemical cycling in lowland tropical rainforests of Costa Rica.
