He was a Rose Postdoctoral fellow at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology from 2017-2019. His research, and that of his lab, focuses on the study of bird, bat, and insect migration using a range of tools and approaches, including the use of radar, acoustics, and citizen science data. His work addresses a handful of fundamental questions of migration and its biology, including understanding avian flight strategies, long-term phenological change, population estimates, impacts of artificial light, and migration forecasting. He completed his M.S. with Jeffrey Buler at the University of Delaware and his Ph.D with Jeffrey Kelly at the University of Oklahoma.
