Academic Status

I was awarded a PhD in ecology with Flinders University SA, in April 2017. Following my PhD, I completed a five month summer season position with the Dept of Conservation NZ, working on the conservation of the critically endangered NZ fairy tern, followed by a year in a Natural Resource Management role in Fiji. Since joining BirdLife Australia in July 2019, I have been involved in bird conservation management, strategy and planning. I also have interests in policy, including incorporating genetics and genomics in the conservation of biodiversity.
