Biography
B.Sc. (Environmental sciences), University of Guelph, 2015 – 2019.
MSc (Forest and Conservation Sciences), The University of British Columbia, 2020 – Present.
Research Interests
My research interests broadly encompass forest ecology, agroecology, and the intersection of these topics with socioeconomic issues. I am most interested in interdisciplinary projects which examine the impacts of ecological health and landscape cover on wellbeing and local livelihoods.
Using remotely-sensed data and GIS, my current research focuses on forest-edge effects and crop productivity in Narok County, Kenya.
