Education
M.S. Biology, Eastern Kentucky University
B.S. Biology, Kentucky State University
Research
Kristin's research focused on elevation range patterns for pollinators and pollinator services in Costa Rica using economically important crop species over replicate elevational gradients. Data were used to make predictions on whether pollinator species with elevational range restrictions would find suitable temperature and precipitation niches in the future.

Education
M.S. Biology, Eastern Kentucky University
B.S. Biology, University of the Cumberlands
Research
Chelsea's research focused on plant-pollinator interactions within the tropical shrub community. She used flowering shrubs to understand how pollinator communities are structured over elevation gradients, and also to identify shrub species that could be used to facilitate restoration of pollinator communities.

B.S. Animal Science, Morehead State University
Amanda studied Kentucky native bee species in relation to various habitats. There is a paucity of data on the species and abundance of bees in Kentucky and it was her goal to fill that gap in the literature. She was particularly interested in degraded lands, as she believes they can be valuable habitats for pollinators.
