Research and Personal Info
I'm a second-year Ph.D. student in the Genetics Graduate Group at UC Davis, and a member of the Jasieniuk lab in the Department of Plant Sciences. My research interest is in the evolution of invasiveness in plants through hybridization. My study organism is Himalayan blackberry (from Armenia), which is highly invasive on the West Coast and is known to hybridize with native and other introduced species.
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 Thomas Jack's lab, where I worked on developing knockout mutants for a gene family putatively involved in floral development in Arabidopsis.
From November 2004 - July 2006 I worked at the Grape Genetics Research Unit in Geneva, NY. Under the direction of Amanda Garris, I worked on gene cloning and QTL mapping towards an understanding of light detection and winter dormancy in grapevine.
In my spare time I enjoy playing trombone, knitting, and spending time outdoors. I am a native of Southern Maine, and am having a good time in California but am not entirely seduced by the weather yet.
