Academic background
I graduated from Hope College in Holland, Mich. with a B.S. in mathematics in 2003. I entered the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee in the fall of 2003. When my advisor moved to this department, I restarted my graduate career at the University of Michigan.
