I currently posses a PhD in bushfire ecology. My expertise is in the fire ecology of eucalypt forests and how this ecology can inform management of these forests and prediction of bushfire behaviour. I had previously attained BA in Mathematics and General Biology and an MSc in Forest Biometrics. I have made a career out of simultaneously occupying both the forest ecology and statistical analysis space and feel equally at home running statistical tests in front of a computer screen and measuring vegetation while camping in the wilderness.
