I study freshwater biogeochemistry and am particularly interested in the role of aquatic microbes in coupling the carbon and phosphorus cycles of inland waters. My current project focuses on quantifying the bioavailability of dissolved organic matter in lakes throughout Minnesota. In addition to my limnological interests, I am also passionate about bringing high level science education opportunities to students across the K-20 space and studying novel and transformative ways to approach science instruction.
