I am an evolutionary genomicist interested in how genome architecture
shapes evolutionary responses to novelty. As anthropogenic activities
continue, species are forced to face novel conditions offering an
opportunity to interrogate the fundamental processes driving rapid
evolution. My research leverages these opportunities to ask how the
organization of the genome itself influences whether and how
populations adapt. To answer this, I generate chromosome-level genome
assemblies for non-model organisms and pair them with population
genomic, ecological, and phenotypic data to build integrative
frameworks that link genome organization to adaptive outcomes. A
central goal of my work is connecting across scales — from the
molecular mechanisms by which genomic variation produces phenotypic
diversity, to how those mechanisms play out across populations and
species experiencing rapid environmental change.

I earned my Ph.D. in Biology from the
<a href="https://bsc.ua.edu/" class="link-primary" target="_blank"
>University of Alabama</a
>
with
<a
href="https://rlearley.people.ua.edu/"
class="link-primary"

>Ryan Earley</a
>, where I worked on the mangrove rivulus
(<span class="fst-italic">Kryptolebias marmoratus</span>), a small
self-fertilizing killifish found across the fragmented mangrove
forests of the Caribbean, Central America, the Bahamas, and Florida.
This system offers a rare opportunity to study how environmental
context shapes genomic and phenotypic variation — its natural
capacity for self-fertilization produces isogenic lineages, providing
a powerful framework for separating genetic from environmental
contributions to phenotypic variation. Using this system, I showed
that developmental timing and environmental conditions can restructure
gene expression and phenotypic diversity even in the absence of
genetic variation<a

><sup>1</sup></a
>. I also used landscape genomic approaches to understand how the
spatial structure of mangrove habitats mediates gene flow and shapes
the distribution of genomic variation across populations<a

I am currently an NSF-funded postdoc at

>Kristin Winchell</a

(<span class="fst-italic">Eurycea bislineata</span>) as a model for
studying evolutionary responses to urbanization and climate change<a

whole genome data to evaluate how novel urban environments drive shifts
in traits and genomic variation in an environmentally sensitive group.
Across these systems — and others including the invasive spotted

and the Italian wall lizard (<span class="fst-italic">Podarcis siculus</span>)
— my research is unified by a focus on how genome organization and
demographic history interact to shape evolutionary trajectories under
environmental novelty. By working across diverse lineages, I aim to
uncover whether shared genomic features produce common evolutionary
responses to novel environments, and to trace those responses down to
the molecular mechanisms that connect genome architecture to phenotypic
change.
