Hi - I’m Taylor! I’m a postdoctoral researcher with the US Geological Survey at the Eastern Ecological Science Center.

I’m a freshwater macroecologist. My research examines processes underlying patterns in biodiversity, body size, and phenology and how ongoing global change affects these patterns.

When not researching, I enjoy visualizing datasets on almost any topic, running, watching basketball and baseball (go Cards!), baking pastries, churning ice creams, and whipping meringues.

I love dogs. Especially rescue mutts, and especially pitties and pitt mixes - of which I am a doggy parent to two:
