Hello! I’m a research scientist at the University of Oxford, where I study how tree diversity influences aboveground biomass recovery in logged tropical forests.
I hold a PhD from the Quantitative Modelling in Ecology and Evolution NERC CDT at the University of Reading, a MRes in Biodiversity, Evolution and Conservation from University College London and a BSc in Zoology from the University of Exeter.
Broadly, my interests lie in quantitative and community ecology – utilising maths and statistics to understand how species interact and coexist. I’m particularly excited by:
- Tropical forests
- Interactions between plants & their natural enemies
- Species coexistence and conspecific density-dependence
- Complex ecological data and Bayesian modelling
- Open & reproducible science
