• Collected and analyzed data to create reports to facilitate decision making in the winemaking process (e.g. ingredient adds, harvest, fermentation stage, etc.).
• Applied quantitative reasoning to qualitative sensory experiences to deliver feedback used in the
• winemaking, harvesting, and blending process.
• Presented data and product updates to clients and communicated their feedback to Senior Winemaker throughout the winemaking process.
• Designed research project to identify yeast species composition in wine undergoing native fermentation to determine the feasibility of using native rather than commercial species.

• Experimentally and observationally investigated how climate variability impacts the ecology and evolution of herbaceous plants and their pathogens and pests - specifically powdery mildew and insect herbivores.
• Collected, prepared, manipulated, analyzed, and interpreted data. Analyzed and visualized data using statistical methods (GLMM, ANOVA, PCA, AIC, ggplot2, ggmap, etc.) in R. Data analysis methods and visualizations.
• Composed manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals. First author on a manuscript published at Ecology as part of a special issue focused on projects that creatively adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Evaluated manuscripts as part of the peer review process for the journal The American Naturalist.
• Developed and conducted design for multiple concurrent laboratory and field experiments.
• Managed large scale research projects with teams of up to five researchers.

• Designed and delivered a lecture on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in agriculture to a class of 25 undergraduate students.
• Led discussion of primary literature and taught first-time users of R/RStudio basics of statistical analysis.
• Currently collaborating with a team of doctoral and undergraduate researchers on a review of the urban plant-disease ecology field.

- Lead discussion and designed assignments based on assessment of primary literature.- Provided timely and substantial feedback on assignments and offered weekly office hours.

Grader for Ecology, an introductory biology course focusing on ecological concepts.

- Assisted students with lab procedures, experimental design, statistical analysis, graphing, computer software, report writing, and field work for the course “Principles of Evolution, Ecology and Heredity”.

- Analyzed and visualized data using statistical methods (Chi-Square, ANOVA, etc.) in SPSS.- Developed proposal for and received $1,000 Leser Grant to conduct field research.- Presented research poster at college wide research symposium.

- Developed and documented a system to utilize NASA’s Integrated System for Imagers and Spectrometers and the GNU Data Language to process satellite images from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera and integrate with topographical data.- Published as coauthor in the resulting manuscript.
