Assistant Professor
Plant and Environmental Sciences, Clemson University
Clemson, South Carolina, United States
I'm from Pennsylvania and went to Lebanon Valley College for my B.S. in Biology and discovered my love of plants and microbial ecology, and then I earned my Ph.D. in Plant Pathology from Cornell University in Geneva, New York in 2019. My research interests are in plant virus ecology, pathogen-pathogen interactions, and virus-vector interactions in fruit crops, and virus ecology at the wild host-crop interface. I am also interested in the diagnosis of graft-transmissible disease agents, and I manage the Clemson Clean Plant Center, associated with the USDA National Clean Plant Network, to ensure the supply of virus-negative peach budwood. I also love to teach, specifically my classes Plant Virology and Molecular Plant-Pathogen Interactions at Clemson!
