Research Interests: My research focuses on invasive grasses and forbs, such as Schismus barbatus and Erodium cicutarium, in the deserts of southern California. I am interested in native and exotic species seed bank dynamics and how nitrogen deposition influences this. I am also investigating how nitrogen deposition affects the germination, growth, and establishment of native and exotic annual species.
