Biography
I am interested in how anthropogenic effects are harming wildlife. Specifically I am interested in how animal behavior is changing as a result of human actions. I have done one project so far looking at the effects of urbanization on woodpecker territoriality, and hope to do my next project on the effects of deforestation on cooperative behavior in nuthatches.
