Key Research Interests: Phenotypic Evolution, Morphological Evolution, Vertebrate Evolution, Phylogenetic Comparative Methods, Geometric Morphometrics, 3D Modeling (CT Scans & Photogrammetry), Morphological Integration, Comparative Anatomy, Body Size Evolution, Sexual Size Dimorphism
I am a conceptual evolutionary biologist dedicated to understanding how evolutionary processes shape phenotypic diversity across vertebrates. My research focuses on the evolutionary patterns and consequences of trait changes, such as sexual size dimorphism, miniaturization, and morphological integration. By leveraging advanced techniques—including geometric morphometrics, CT scanning, photogrammetry, and phylogenetic comparative methods—I aim to explore how evolutionary forces have driven phenotypic diversity across species, while recognizing the broader ecological and evolutionary contexts in which these traits evolve.
