Flora And Fauna Division, Department Of Environment, Parks And Water Security, Northern Territory Go

A biologist with more than 15 years' experience working in tropical to temperate, freshwater to savanna environments in Australia and South Africa, and a PhD in tropical riparian plant ecology. I work collaboratively across government, research, practitioner and industry sectors. Threatened species, plant biodiversity research, seed banking and conservation genomics are key areas of interest and expertise. As the threatened species botanist at the Northern Territory Government, one of my key drivers is to use science to inform decision-making about the environment.
