Jordan Walters

While her roots are in Colorado, Jordan Walters is currently an undergraduate studying Microbiology at Mississippi State University. She started working in the Welch lab in 2021 as an undergraduate assistant, and she has grown into her own research. Her current focus is on the genetic structure of the endangered Turks and Caicos rock iguana population on Six Hills Cay, an island with a small, translocated population of iguanas.
