I am a postdoctoral research assistant in the Saupe Lab, based in the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Oxford. My work focuses on constraining the effects of confounding factors on evolutionary patterns and developing tools that allow others to do so. I am interested in integrating the living and fossil records of life in analyses that explore the origins and evolution of organismal diversity, both in terms of morphological variety and species richness.
