I am interested in studying how natural phenomena, anthropogenic contaminants, and other environmental stressors influence marine microbial communities. My work focuses on understanding microbiome resilience and sensitivity in response to environmental stressors in the endangered Caribbean coral, Acropora cervicornis.
