Jake Lasala is an alumnus of Dr. Wyneken’s lab from 2012-2019. During his time at FAU Jake researched the breeding behavior of marine turtles nesting in Palm Beach County. Jake examined the paternity of nests to identify how many males were contributing to each nest and what that means for the populations. Jake is currently a postdoc at Mote Marine Lab's Sea Turtle Conservation and Research Program where he is overseeing new research projects. In Jake’s free time he enjoys golfing and playing video games
