Biographical Information

After teaching middle school students about science for three years, I decided to try my hand at doing science. I worked with Dr. Larry St. Clair at Brigham Young University where I received a M.S. in 2004. Now I am working on a Ph.D. with Dr. Jim Cronin at Louisiana State University.

I love that my job takes me outside and allows me to play with computer programs.

CV

Cub scouts discover the lichens in their neighborhood. Nathan Jackson, my husband and a fellow biology graduate student at LSU, also taught the scouts about reptiles and amphibians.
