I received my B.Sc. in geology from Northern Arizona University in May 2004.  I am currently a Ph.D. student in the Department of Integrative Biology and Museum of Paleontology at University of California – Berkeley.  My current research focuses on Late Triassic tetrapods, especially basal archosaurs.  I am particularly interested in the phylogeny of basal archosaurs, basal dinosaurs, and their relatives.  Other research interests include ontogeny, taphonomy, and biostratigraphy.  Recent fieldwork has focused on the Upper Triassic Chinle Formation of Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona.
