EDUCATION
ÅÝܽÊÓƵapp of Florida

TEACHING 
BSC 2093C/2094C Human Anatomy and Physiology - 
This year long class gives me a great opportunity to really get to know each and every ÅÝܽÊÓƵapp

BSC 2010 Cellular Processes - I enjoy watching the ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps learn and grow throughout their academic career

PCB 3712 General Physiology - Introducing ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps to the wonderful world of physiology is an honor and a privilege

RESEARCH
As an Instructor, my focus is now on teaching with research efforts working with ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps interested in human and animal physiology.

I am a marine biologist with a passion for physiology. My background extends from veterinary technician to marine mammal rehabilitation. During my MS in Marine Science at the ÅÝܽÊÓƵapp of New England, I examined pinniped nutrition in various rehabilitation centers across the country. I completed my dissertation in trace metals in the West Indian manatee at the ÅÝܽÊÓƵapp of Florida and then completed a short postdoc at the ÅÝܽÊÓƵapp of Queensland’s National Research Centre for Environmental Toxicology in Australia.

I do not have an active research lab at USF, but still mentor undergraduates and honors ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps with their research projects and am active with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Fish and Wildlife Research Institute.
