I am a Ph.D. candidate co-advised
by Rick
Michod and Régis
Ferrière.
I am interested in evolutionary transitions in individuality (ETIs)
generally, and specifically in the transition from unicellular to
differentiated multicellular life in the volvocine green algae.
My research incorporates theoretical, empirical, and comparative
approaches to explore the selective pressures that may have driven this
transition.
