Home
I began teaching at FHU in 1996 where I teach a variety of major and non-major courses. I conduct research in the area of vertebrate biology and specialize in amphibian and reptilian ecology, biogeography, and conservation. I have authored or coauthored over 40 articles, four book chapters, and one book on herpetological subjects. I actively involve my students in research and currently have students studying turtle community dynamics and invasive gecko behavior.
