Welcome!

I am an assistant professor of biology at Truman State University. The classes I teach include Biology 107/Introductory Biology I, Biology 300/Genetics, and Biology 362/Embryology and Developmental Biology. My research focuses on embryonic development in C. elegans, and the use of C. elegans as a genetic model system for human biology, including cancer metastasis, wound healing and spina bifida.
