BIO

My research focuses on elucidating biogeographic and evolutionary mechanisms of biodiversity patterns in the context of global change, notably biological invasions and climate change, with the aim of illuminating how these disturbances affect plant diversity across rapidly changing landscapes. Using interdisciplinary approaches across the fields of biogeography, ecology, evolution, and data science, my work explores multiple facets of past, present, and future biodiversity to address the grand challenge of mitigating anthropogenic influence on the world's ecosystems.
