Professional Title
Wildlife Ecologist, Forest and Land Research Group Leader
About
My research integrates conservation ecology, spatial and habitat ecology, and restoration science to examine how environmental and climate change impact biodiversity and ecosystem function. I use birds as indicator species to study wildlife responses to land use and management changes. My work informs conservation and restoration planning, with a focus on protecting species of conservation concern and promoting ecological resilience.
