Academic Interests

My research interests include dairy nutrition, specifically regarding its effects on methane production. My goal for my degree is to investigate how to improve methane concerns by using feed ingredients to manipulate methane emissions from dairy cows. Outside of my research, I enjoy assisting in ANS 313, Animal Feeding and Nutrition. I have been given the opportunity to overlook projects, lecture, lead lab sessions, and answer students' questions.
