About Me

Hello! My name is Rachel Reeb. I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh, PA, working in the Heberling Lab and serving as the lead program manager for the Invasive Species Awareness Campaign. 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 research, data analytics, and science communication. When not in my office or the herbarium, I enjoy hiking with my dogs and exploring the Pittsburgh parks.
