I have worked on projects ranging from a population count of the blue iguana in the Cayman Islands to otter conservation with the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.

For my masters research I carried out two dissertations, the first being a data analysis project on the economic history of the UK trade in parrots.  For my second project I travelled to the Cook Islands and developed a sampling methodology in order to undertake a population census of the Rarotonga starling.

I joined WildCRU in January 2012 to start my DPhil research in hedgehog ecology, looking at the link between hedgehog abundance, suitable habitat and foraging behaviour in rural areas.
