BIO
I am from Canterbury, England, but spent my undergraduate years at Bennington College in southern Vermont. I studied forest ecology and was interested in the impact of historic forest fragmentation and land use on species composition. I like spending time with my dog, skiing and going to see the overwhelming supply of live music that Burlington has to offer.
Currently, I am a graduate student in the Beckage lab working with LPJ-GUESS, a dynamic terrestrial ecosystem model. The model will be used to project forest composition at the time of European settlement. Ultimately, I hope to use shifts in species composition that result from alternative fire intervals to gain insight into human-induced fire frequency at the time.
