I am broadly interested in the evolutionary ecology of species interactions. My research focuses on the interactions among plants, insect herbivores, and insect predators to test how communities are structured both in ecological and evolutionary time. I am also interested in how species interactions may be instrumental in the formation of new species. My research incorporates molecular ecology, phylogenetics, and behavioral ecology, and takes me throughout the southwestern United States and Florida.
