​I am a wildlife ecologist who is fascinated by the patterns we see in nature - whether it be behavioural patterns between individuals, population patterns within species, or landscape patterns between parts of the country. As humans keep changing the environment I want to understand how we influence these patterns, how we can best conserve these patterns, and ultimately how we affect the persistence of other life on earth.

​I am currently a MITACS postdoctoral researcher at the University of Victoria in collaboration with the Beaver Hills Biosphere and ​​Friends of Elk Island Society.
​
My PhD thesis investigated spatial ecological processes, and conservation practices, in a landscape of high human activity: "Understanding and sampling spatial ecological process for biodiversity conservation in heterogeneous landscapes"
