BIO
Since completing my PhD in 2009, I have worked with environmental
consultants, with industry partners in research and in tertiary education.
My research interests include the study of vegetation dynamics at both fine-
scale and landscape levels, in response to altered environmental and
disturbance regimes. I am particularly interested in how ecological theory
can be used to understand community development and the application of this
knowledge to land management. Recent research has focused on the restoration
of degraded landscapes, understanding plant community responses to changed
disturbance regimes through the study of soil seed banks, and recruitment
requirements in semi-arid systems.
