I am a freshwater ecologist with an interest in animal assemblages and their interactions with the environment. I am interested in freshwater animal communities and the ecological processes that govern them. I employ a mix of empirical measurements and statistical modelling in my research. My work commonly involves the study of food webs which provide insights into resource availability and utilisation. This can often be useful for deducing how, or how well, key ecosystem processes are functioning.

I am also interested in the conservation impacts of the international wildlife trade, with a focus on key drivers of the trade and tools that help us identify patterns in the movement of wild animal products across borders.
