Since September 2012, I’ve been apost-doc with Mark Westoby in the Department of Biological Sciences at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia.

I completed my PhD in July 2012 with Judy Myers & Diane Srivastava in the Department of Zoology and the Biodiversity Research Centre at the University of British Columbia, Canada.

I’m an ecologist interested in the interactions between insects and their host-plant. The focus of my research is to predict these effects of herbivory by understanding how traits of both plants and insects alter levels of herbivory, and how external factors can influence these interactions.
