About Me

Hello! My name is Rachel Reeb. I am a Forest Science Associate at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania - Research Institute in Indiana, PA, working in partnership with the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). I received my Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in 2023, advised by Drs. Sara Kuebbing and Martin Turcotte. My research broadly seeks to understand the impacts of anthropogenic disturbance (namely, invasive species and climate change) on the long-term health of ecosystems. Over the last several years, I have developed a wide range of expertise in ecological research, data analytics, and science communication.
