Profil

I am an agroecologist and a classically trained biologist born in Canada with previous work ranging from field entomology to bioinformatics. My current research interests aim to understand the climate and environmental impacts of legumes and plant-based food production. This is coupled with challenging the double-edged sword of legume cropping by understanding the ecological controls on N2O production within these systems.
