My pronouns are she/her
I am an ecologist, exploring the biodiversity and ecosystem function outcomes of nature-based solutions projects, with a particular focus on native woodland expansion in the UK. My ecological research centres on data collection across natural gradients and within existing conservation projects, complemented by experimental work to investigate underlying mechanisms in more detail.
Having worked in and collaborated extensively with the practical conservation sector in the UK, I am passionate about integrating effective research and monitoring into real world projects. This motivated the co-development of a practitioner-focussed tool for selecting metrics to monitor biodiversity and soil health outcomes in nature-based solutions projects, which is available here: https://nbshub.naturebasedsolutionsinitiative.org/monitoring-tool/
