Introduction
I am a PhD candidate investigating carnivore behavioural ecology and human-carnivore coexistence mechanisms through integrated socio-ecological research frameworks. Research interests include carnivore behavioural ecology, modelling human-wildlife interaction dynamics, applied conservation ecology, remote camera trap methodologies, and participatory research practices that place emphasis on community-defined research agendas to produce effective locally-relevant conservation outcomes.

Recreational activities have been shown to induce fear responses in carnivores, causing both spatial and temporal displacement that can have cascading effects on the wider ecological community. Cougars Puma concolor are one species that are particularly sensitive to human disturbances as they have been found to be impacted by various forms of recre...
Article

In seasonal environments, the ability of mustelid species to acquire carrion—a dietary resource heavily depended upon—is driven by a collection local habitat characteristics and competition dynamics. In resource-scarce winter, sympatric mesocarnivores must balance energetic rewards of carrion with avoiding antagonistic interactions with conspecific...
