I am a post-doctoral researcher at Chicago Botanic Garden where I study the ecology of pollinator gardens.

Previously, I co-founded and ran the Tufts Pollinator Initiative (sites.tufts.edu/pollinators). I am most interested in flower-visiting insects, with a particular expertise in wild bees of the northeast US.

I have written and photographed on an online field guide to wild bees with Max McCarthy @mmccarthy98: watchingbees.com

Max and I also teach a summer field seminar at Eagle Hill Institute in Maine titled Natural History of Wild Bees: https://www.eaglehill.us/programs/sems-weeklong/calendar-weeklong.shtml
