Biography:

Master's student at the University of Alberta studying flies, carrion beetles, and the mites that live on them. I graduated from University of Nebraska Lincoln in 2022 with undergrad degrees in microbiology and entomology. I worked in the Nebraska State Museum's insect collection, mainly doing specimen identification. I'm fond of all arthropods but am especially interested in Diptera.
