Matt is a PhD student interested in widely integrative approaches to aquatic ecology, combining field studies, broad-scale datasets, and quantitative tools to understand how habitat structure, species interactions, and management practices influence fish population structure, growth and life history. His work spans topics including community ecology, density-dependent dynamics, introgression, dietary composition, growth rates, habitat modification effects, life history traits, predator-prey dynamics, trophic dynamics, and applied fisheries management. Prior to joining the lab, Matt received his undergraduate training from Brown University, in Providence, Rhode Island. Outside of the lab, Matt enjoys fishing, sports, and cooking, and is heavily involved with both choral music and Catholic ministry on campus.
