Research Interests
My research interests are understanding the flow of nutrients and energy to aquatic ecosystems and how top predators are involved in these trophic interactions. My dissertation will focus on the abiotic factors, biotic factors, and movement of two sympatric species of peacock bass in the Essequibo River Basin in Guyana to create ecological niche models.

My favorite pastime is ice fishing
