I am the Course Leader for BSc (Hons) International Wildlife Biology, teaching across IWB, BSc Natural History, and MSc Wildlife and Conservation Biology. My teaching remit includes population and community ecology, human-wildlife conflicts, statistics, field and research skills, and environmental management and legislation. My research interests include community, population ecology, movement, and spatial ecology, invasive species, threatened species, and human-wildlife interactions. My work is diverse, broadly interdisciplinary and highly collaborative. I employ lab, field and statistical techniques to answer specific questions relating to the ecology of species and ecological communities and inform conservation, management and policy-related processes.
