Biographical Sketch:
I am broadly interested in investigating the ecological and evolutionary drivers of biological diversity across time and space, using the findings to predict resilience and resistance to invasion, climate and land use changes. I study functional, taxonomic, genetic, phylogenetic, and community levels of biodiversity, using data from various sources such as herbarium records, short & long term field surveys, experimental, and remote sensing.
