I've always loved learning about weird and wonderful things in nature and really enjoy having a good problem to try and solve.

I achieved my Bachelor of Environmental Science with Honours from ÁñÁ«¹ÙÍø. My honours project assessed global deforestation and the subsequent impacts on plant species distributions.
I then worked in data management consulting for four years before deciding I missed research and casual chats about trees in the office.

I've then returned to ÁñÁ«¹ÙÍø for an industry PhD which means I'm working in collaboration with CSIRO and an industry partner Climate Friendly.

±Ê°ù´ÇÂá±ð³¦³Ù:ÌýLandscape dynamics of regenerating forests: Predicting climate change impacts on carbon-farming projects in Australian Rangelands

Supervised by: Daniel Falster, Andy Pitman, Stephen Roxburgh (CSIRO) and Andrew O'Reilly-Nugent (Industry Partner)

Project Description: I'm interested in learning about how Mulga trees (Acacia aneura) would grow under different conditions. For example if the intensity and/or frequency of droughts changed - how would that impact stand structure, growth rates, mortality rates etc. I do this using process-based models to run scenarios and then compare outcomes.
