About

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Fenner School of Environment and Society, with a current research focus on the population genetics of highly-mobile parrots. I finished my PhD with the DBRG in 2024, in which I studied the breeding biology and population dynamics of the Endangered Norfolk Island Green Parrot (Cyanoramphus cookii).

Since 2019 I have worked across a number of DBRG projects as an Honours Student, PhD Student and Research Assistant. In addition, I’ve gained valuable experience working in a range of different fields, including ecological consulting, management consulting and ethical investing.

My primary research interests centre around the conservation ecology of threatened birds, particularly those facing ongoing anthropogenic threats.
