When I'm not researching, writing, or teaching, I am usually throwing a ball for my two rescue dogs or hanging out with my fantastic partner of nearly 16 years.
I grow and propagate succulents and tropical plants. My biggest botanical achievement was in 2023, when I alerted the U.S. Botanical Garden to a mislabeled succulent. They changed the label, saving tens of thousands of people from thinking a plant was a crassula pyramidalis when it was not, in fact, a crassula pyramidalis! (You're all welcome.)
