Research

I am a research fellow in the UFS Department of Plant Sciences, and I am interested in conservation ecology and environmental sustainability research. I specifically examine the impact of exotic plants on ecosystem livelihood (e.g., restoration) and human well-being (e.g., food security); protected area biodiversity management; and the South African biodiversity economic sector.
