Education:

BA, International Relations, Mount Holyoke College, 2010
BA, Biology, University of Montana, 2016

 

Research Interests:

I am interested in the conflict that exists between visual communication and crypsis. How are visual systems and visual signals adapted to yield effective communication between conspecifics, yet leave the signaler inconspicuous to predators? I am particularly interested in the role played by polarized light in visual communication.
