Biography
I study social interactions and the role they play in evolutionary and ecological processes. My works involves observations of wild animals and data analysis using quantitative genetics and social network analysis. Please get in touch if you would like to know more
Previously I worked at McMaster University (Canada), looking at the heritability and evolution of group traits in social spiders, and at the University of Guelph (Canada), studying North American red squirrels in the Yukon. I completed my PhD at the University of Exeter (Cornwall campus), and my Masters at the University of Liverpool.
