Most of my work is on how local processes (e.g., behavior, competition, hybridization, parasitism) combine with regional processes (e.g., colonization, environmental filtering, extinction) to determine the distribution and abundance of organisms. It combines experimental and observational approaches, and often uses computer simulations to determine whether empirical observations deviate from null expectations. I have received Faculty Excellence in Scholarship Award for the College of Science and Technology at Tarleton State University,Recipient of the Texas A&M University System Student Recognition Award forTeaching Excellence Inducted into The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi .
