I am a second year graduate student in Entomology working under Dr. Schmidt at University of Georgia. I received my bachelors and masters in Forestry from Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, India. My research interests apply to plant insect interactions, beneficial insects and conservation of native biodiversity. My graduate research examines the influence of native wildflowers on the population of beneficial arthropods and I am also trying to understand the trophic linkages within the border habitats consisting of the wildflowers.
