About me

My goal as a scientist is to improve the lives of the animals in our care with data-driven science and ethical consideration. I am incredibly interested in improvements that can be applied on a large scale. I earned a B.S. in Psychology and a minor in Biology from DePaul University. After graduating from DePaul, I gained extensive experience working with zoo animals at multiple institutions. I am currently working toward a Ph.D. in Animal Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I draw on a wide range of disciplines to approach animal welfare and behavior questions holistically.
