I have worked with undergraduate and high school students throughout my PhD establishing the Boulder Chickadee Study from: nest box building, chickadee wrangling, and project design. 

​

My goal as a mentor is to train independent thinkers through hands-on experience with the entire scientific process. I mentor students in developing their own research questions, troubleshooting methods, and thinking critically about their work.

I have mentored students in independent research studying:

Chickadee nestling

diet composition

Chickadee plumage

variation
