Introduction
Plant and fungal systematics PhD student at the Australian National University (ANU) investigating the evolution of the Australian orchid flora and their mycorrhizal symbionts.
I hold a Master of Scientific Studies (Biodiversity Science) from the University of New England (UNE), where my research focused on the taxonomy, systematics and conservation of Prostanthera (Lamiaceae).

Research into the systematics of Prostanthera recently revealed close evolutionary relationship among P. phylicifolia sens. str., the critically endangered P. gilesii, and a population of uncertain identity from the Central Tablelands of New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Previous analyses were unable to establish whether genetic boundaries separate...

Prostanthera gilesii Althofer ex. B.J.Conn & T.C.Wilson is a critically endangered species from the Central Tablelands of New South Wales. A conservation management strategy is currently underway for this species, whose phylogenetic affinities are not known. Morphologically, P. gilesii resembles P. phylicifolia F.Muell. and a population of uncertai...
