Bio:

Obtained Ph.D. from UNC - Chapel Hill in December 2006. Dissertation was on Evolution in a Coral Snake Mimicry System and focused on the effects of mimicry on the Scarlet Kingsnake (Lampropeltis elapsoides) in the southeastern US. Took a temporary position at Hendrix College in Conway, AR in January 2007. Interviewed for the tenure track position and was offered the position. In 2008, was one of three to receive the Judy & Randy Wilbourn Odyssey Professorship for three years.
