Research Interests

My pronouns are he/him


I am interested in the evolution of social behaviours. My research is currently focused on understanding how interactions between relatives can shape conflict and cooperation as well as the evolution of female competition and aggression. Most of my work uses insect models, such as fruit flies, to experimentally study both the ultimate and proximate evolution of these behaviours.
