| I'm a fifth-year Ph.D. student in the [[UC Davis Genetics Graduate Group|Genetics Graduate Group at UC Davis]], and a member of the [[Jasieniuk]] lab in the Department of Plant Sciences. My dissertation research is on the evolution of invasiveness in blackberry (''Rubus''), particularly relating to hybridization and asexual reproduction. I have also written some software in R for the analysis of polyploid data. In the summer of 2011 I plan to start my postdoctoral work with Erik Sacks at the University of Illinois, studying the population genetics of ''Miscanthus'' and other bioenergy grasses.

| I graduated from Dartmouth College in 2004, having majored in Genetics, Cell & Developmental Biology and minored in Chemistry. From June 2002 to June 2004 I did my undergraduate thesis research in [http://www.dartmouth.edu/~tjack/ Thomas Jack's lab], where I worked on developing knockout mutants for a gene family putatively involved in floral development in ''Arabidopsis''.
