About

I am currently a PhD student under Dr. Robert Richardson at North Carolina State University studying aquatic invasive plant management. My main research interests focus on improving management techniques and restoration efforts through improved understanding of concentration exposure time requirements for selective herbicide management. I am currently working on studies investigating potential herbicide response and growth differences between populations of Vallisneria americana from geographically distinct areas.

I currently serve as the student representative to the Aquatic Plant Management Society Board of Directors.
