After completing postdoctoral projects focussed on the use of forest structural complexity for landscape planning, dendrochronological reconstruction of river flow in Victoria, water use in mountain-ash forests and [CO₂] responsiveness in commercial forest species, I was appointed as a Senior Lecturer in the Fenner School in 2018. I currently teach first-year research methods, with a specific focus upon helping students make the important connection between the theory of inferential statistics and their application. I also teach modelling and field botany for later-year students.

I am continuing to explore the genotype-by-[CO₂] interactions in eucalypt species and have ongoing dendrochronological, and silvicultural research interests.  I also lead collaborative research efforts focussed on understanding wood-borer induced dieback of snow-gum woodland in the Australian Alps.
