Professor in Biological Sciences at Tarleton State University in Texas. My focus is population genetics at the interface between populations and species--including hybridization. Because I work at a university that (historically) has been teaching focused, my research questions and methodology are relatively simple.
I'm active on iNaturalist, posting observations of as many different species as I find and providing identifications of others' observations.
