Welcome!


I am an ecologist interested in all things Arctic, predator-prey interactions, animal movement, climate change consequences, and ecological modelling. I did my PhD with the Statistical Ecology Research Group at the Institute for the Oceans & Fisheries at the University of British Columbia. I am currently a Research Scientist at Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
