Bio

I have worked in various policy roles for the Australian and Victorian governments. More recently completed a PhD with the RMIT Interdisciplinary Conservation (ICON) Science lab, Where I investigated use of framing techniques for enhancing conservation messages.

 

I am continuing this research theme with the Australian Government’s National Environmental Science Program’s Threatened Species Recovery Hub project: using social and economic opportunities for threatened species recovery.

 

My research applies social science concepts, particularly from psychology and economics, to empirically test alternatively-framed information, and to analyse contemporary conservation communications.
