About me
Since 1998, I've worked with iguana species in captive situations and in the wild. In 2009 I began taking classes in ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Colorado. In 2012 I began preliminary work on Ctenosaura similis, the spiny tailed iguana, in Palo Verde National Park, Costa Rica.
I am a currently a doctoral student at the University of Northern Colorado studying animal social structures, specifically in non-cooperative, viviparous lizards. Why do these reptiles form groups? What are the benefits of their social structure and how does it affect fitness and evolution? How does it change during breeding and non-breeding seasons, and what are the effects of personality and network connections?
