I have a strong sense of social and environmental justice. I believe that information sharing and story telling play a critical role in the future of transforming science into knowledge, and the successful integration of best practice science into policy. My key areas of interest and expertise are: sustainable land use, land use change, soil management; carbon sequestration; biodiversity and ecosystem resilience; climate solutions; climate change mitigation and adaptation. I am committed to finding innovative and creative solutions to the key challenges we face in tackling climate change and reducing our footprint on the planet.
