Originally from Indiana, I pursued my bachelor's degree in Biology at Eureka College in Eureka, IL. Afterwards, I decided to pursue a PhD in Microbiology at Arizona State University. There, I researched the relationship between bacteria and a group of single celled eukaryotes, known as parabasalians, living within the gut of an invasive termite species. During my program, I taught an undergraduate microbiology laboratory course as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, as well as several online courses. I also got the opportunity to work with several talented undergraduates and incorporate them into my research projects. I graduated in May 2025 and am happy to be here at Trinidad State to continue teaching undergraduate students!
