We are two early career soil ecologists in academia who entered the field of soil ecology with the goal of studying soil-climate feedbacks to make meaningful contributions to climate change...

To this end, I develop mathematical models at multiple scales: the μm scale to investigate molecular processus such as evolution, the cm scale to study community interactions, and the m-km scale to predict ecosystem functions and global carbon stocks.

Integrating the effect of microbial legacy and adaptation on soil biogeochemistry in the MIcrobial-MIneral Carbon Stabilization (MIMICS) model. Burning Questions: How do soil microbes shape ecosystem biogeochemistry in the context of global change? How …

With my colleague Dr. Moira Hough, we wrote an opinion piece sharing our expectations, as early career scientists, for our field of soil ecology. We argue that institutions (academia, journals) should promote inclusive and solution-based soil ecology, and we explain why and how.
