I completed my PhD with the Institute of Marine and Antarctic Studies, studying how conservation can be planned into how we manage our research stations' footprint in Antarctica. I have a background in conservation, land management, and eco-tourism, working full time as a national park Ranger before research. From this experience, I have worked at Casey and Davis Stations, and Commonwealth Bay (Mawson's Huts) in continental Antarctica, the Antarctic Peninsula, as well as the Subantarctic Heard, Macquarie, Campbell and Auckland Islands.
