BIO
Tiffany is a Research Coordinator in the Nutrient Cycling and Ecological Design Lab. She studies water quality and phosphorus dynamics in wetlands in the Lake Champlain Basin and supports research in the Casella Center on a variety of nutrient and resource recovery and reuse topics. Tiffany also manages the laboratory spaces and a team of undergraduate research assistants.
Tiffany has a range of previous research experience, spanning biogeochemistry of Texas estuaries to climate change impacts on primary producer ecology in ponds and larval fish diets and recruitment in the Great Lakes. Prior to joining UVM, Tiffany worked in coastal New Hampshire developing living shorelines as a climate resilience strategy, monitoring water quality for shellfish harvest, and studying Vibrio and phytoplankton dynamics in estuaries. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, skiing, and cooking with produce from the local farmers’ market.
