Overview
I have been working in conservation for the last 12 years, in various volunteer, fundraising and project coordination positions. I have extensive fieldwork experience and have conducted both social and ecological research in countries such as South Africa, Madagascar, Uganda, Poland and Cambodia. I completed a PhD in Conservation Science at Bangor University in 2022.
Research
My research is primarily focussed on understanding rule-breaking and compliance in conservation, with a specific interest in research ethics and law enforcement around protected areas.
During my PhD I investigated the most appropriate methods to elicit robust information about the prevalence of sensitive behaviour in different conservation contexts. I worked as part of a wider project, and undertook fieldwork in and around Protected Areas in Indonesia and Tanzania.
