How does our environment shape how we show up as individuals and connect with our communities?
Whether these individuals are plants or people, this question is at the root of how I approach some of the grand challenges of our time: climate change, social (in)justices, accessible education, and wellbeing as an educator, scholar and scientist.
As an educator and scholar, the question guides how I create and deliver training on ethical, inclusive and open research practices. In my work, I strive to embed principles of Open Science, social justice and Universal Design.
As an plant scientist, the impact of environment x individual (plant) interactions was studied using experimental field methods. In my Doctoral research I looked at how climate change-driven droughts affects UK grassland communities.
