- Poultry Nutrition
I am a Ph.D. student working in Poultry Nutrition in Dr. Persia's lab. I am originally from Woodstock, Georgia; however, I received a Bachelor of Science in Poultry Science from the University of Arkansas. Afterwards, I moved up to Illinois and completed my Master's of Science at the University of Illinois where my research focused on the nutritional evaluation and the use of palm kernel meal from global processing facilities in poultry. My current work for my Ph.D. dissertation focuses on feed additives in poultry, such as emulsifiers and copper sulfate used in layers and broilers, respectively.
