Professional Summary

I am a master's student working in Dr. Crowley's lab, and I am interested in exploring the diet, migration, and extinction of Quaternary mammals through the lens of stable isotope paleoecology. For my thesis, I will be investigating the foraging ecology and extinction chronology of Haitian ground sloths using stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes in addition to radiocarbon isotopes.
