My research explores the underling processes governing the emergence of biodiversity patterns across space, time, and the tree of life. My research asks why species distributions are non-random, why biological diversity is partitioned so unevenly across the globe, and how distinct lineages accumulate over evolutionary timescales. To uncover the drivers behind these macro-scale patterns, I employ a multifaceted approach that integrates diverse study systems with both correlative and mechanistic modeling. Beyond empirical ecology, I am deeply interested in the inferential philosophy within our field; part of my work examines the philosophical underpinnings of ecological practice, questioning why we approach scientific inquiry through our current methodological lenses.
