Botanist with the Bishop Museum, currently also working on finishing up my graduate research at UH Mānoa. My research focuses on invasive grasses and their history and distribution across the islands of Hawai'i. I have general knowledge of most plant diversity and a specific interest in grasses and sedges. Feel free to tag me to ask for any sort of ID. Also, if I disagreed with you on an ID, just tag me and ask why.
