My research interests cover a wide spectrum of topics in environmental science and biology. Particularly, I love working with trees and understanding the influence of climate change on the growth of rural and urban forestry. This includes the role of trees in mitigating climate change through carbon storage and sequestration.
My previous work involved working on sustainability projects, such as assessing scenarios that expand on afforestation projects, evaluating forested properties and climate change mitigation potential, and aiding in university level projects that help reach carbon neutrality. I have also worked on projects looking at invasive species eradication and paleolimnology.
