Research interests
- Her work has included the use of individual-based models (IBMs), geographical information systems (GIS) and stable isotopes to increase understandings of invasion patterns and evaluate invasive species eradication programmes. She also uses citizen science tools to co-produce knowledge with the general public and increase adaptation pathways to climatic risks.
- Champion of the Nature-Based Solutions Special Interest Group at the Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute.
- Postgrad Rep and Social Media Lead of the British Ecological Society Invasion Science Group.
