I work in the Rich Lab at the University of Arizona, focused on the Critical Zone Observatory project for the Catalina-Jemez site. I am helping to collect soil samples, measure microbial biomass, characterize the community composition, and further analyze the data collected to see how microbial communities react to pulse events. I have previously worked in the EEB department at the University of Arizona in the Enquist lab, aiding a Ph.D. candidate with her thesis work looking at evolution of trees on a small time scale in Canada and completing a small project on the leaf economic spectrum.
