Biography
I am currently a PhD student at the Museum of the Rockies, Montana State University, studying the paleoecology of Late Cretaceous microsites in the Judith River Formation of Montana. In addition to my research, I'm involved in our ongoing effort to organize and improve access to our paleontology collections. I also organize the summer field crews for the largest paleo field program in the country, involving over 70 volunteers at 3 main camps and a few smaller ones scattered across Montana.

I began digging with the Museum of the Rockies the summer after I graduated high school. I enjoyed it so much, I've been digging with them ever since. I've been a crew chief for 5 years now, at our Rudyard field station. I was also fortunate enough to join Jack on a trip to Mongolia, and I hope to travel to other international field sites in the future.
