Biography

After acquiring my PhD in Environmental Microbiology from the University of Aberdeen in 2005, I initially continued to work in contaminated land looking at enhanced bioremediation of heavy hydrocarbons.
In 2006 I joined the Environmental Modelling group lead by Professor Pete Smith and Dr Jo Smith. Here, I started transferring my practical microbiological knowledge into the interpretation and contributing development of a process-based model for carbon and nitrogen (ECOSSE). Then, I diversified into different areas within the group and have contributed to and completed numerous projects. These mainly encompassed working with and interpreting large, complex and often spatial datasets using ArcGIS, SQL and R. This work has been complemented with detailed commissioned reports for Greenpeace International on greenhouse gas emissions of global agriculture and more recently the European livestock sector.
More information on individial projects can be viewed here.
