Research Interests
I am interested in how patterns in invasive plant distributions can help us understand invasion processes and human involvement in the spread of invasive species at a broad scale. I’m particularly interested in the role of invasive species in structuring plant communities, how invasive species research applies to management, and how climate change influences invasive plant distributions.
