I received my B.S. degree from Spring Hill College in Mobile, Alabama in 2010 in marine biology. I am now a master’s student in Dr. Melissa Walsh’s lab studying the ecological impacts of upstream dam removal through ensemble modeling. With the help of my sidekick, Gypsy, I am working to develop predictive models that will elucidate the driving forces behind the yearly cyanobacteria blooms in Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, and determine whether or not restoration efforts (dam removal and wetland restoration) have improved the health of the ecosystem.
