I'm an ecosystem ecologist generally interested in how to incorporate animals into current ecological paradigms. Presently, I explore how animals interact with their environments, as well as how conservation considers and incorporates animals into decision making.

News:
I'm honored to have won the Georgina Mace Prize from Ecological Solutions and Evidence for our paper quanitifying the nutrients lost from Scottish landscapes due to deer culling practices!
Excited to announce I've been awarded a Banting Postdoctoral Fellow from NSERC and have begun at Memorial University, working with the WEEL and LeRoux labs. Stay tuned for more deer-related science.
New paper demonstrating how animal zoogeochemical inputs may promote site fidelity, using simulated caribou calving. We call it the biogeochemical boomerang!
New papers on valuing individuals in human-wildlife conflict and the theory behind predator-prey interactions.
Check out my interview with YSE after winning the Bormann Prize.
