Research Interests:
I am interested in how competition between non-native Arionid slugs and native Philomycid slugs may negatively impact Philomycid populations. I am seeking to quantify the relative importance of the resources involved in conflict, determining the interindividual mechanisms of competition, and establishing how important habitat factors may interact with competition.
