I've done a fair amount of field botany east of the MS river. I'd like to branch out and study plants in new and exotic areas, though; lets say somewhere like...Arkansas.

Currently a research botanist at NC Botanical Garden and the NCU herbarium, where I work each week on improving the Flora of the Southeastern US with Alan Weakley, Michael Lee, and other great folks in the herbarium and beyond.

Graminoid and Aster-centric.
