Research Projects

Exploring terrestrial organisms through extensive land snail studies worldwide.

A large snail with a patterned brown and white shell is moving across a textured piece of wood. Surrounding it are several green plants and grass, with smooth rocks nearby, creating a natural, earthy setting.

Central America Focus

My research in Central America includes studies in Belize, Guatemala, and Panama, emphasizing the ecological significance of land snails and their habitats in these diverse regions.

A snail with a shiny, brown shell crawls through a patch of green grass and small white flowers. The environment is natural, with varying shades of green and the texture of the grass and plants evident. The snail's antennae are extended as it moves across the damp soil.

Mountain Studies

In the Great Smoky Mountains, I investigate land snail diversity and ecology, contributing to our understanding of terrestrial ecosystems and their conservation in this biodiverse national park.
