I am a first-year doctoral research student at the interdisciplinary School of Regulation and Governance (RegNet) at the Australian National University. My innovative research focuses on how societies attempt to govern and deliver security during, and in preparation for, climate related disasters. I am trained as a social scientist and have worked with leading Australian researchers and police practitioners on a range of projects examining how police organisations and networks adapt to crises. I currently have several publications in the pipeline and a multi-authored monograph with Routledge on the way.
