I am a disturbance ecologist 🔥 and environmental data scientist 📈 💻, and am currently a PhD candidate in the James lab and Fortin lab at the University of Toronto.

My PhD research is mostly thinking about how climate change 🥵 and insect disturbance 🐛 affect wildfire burn severity 🔥 in the boreal forest 🌲. I also spend a lot of time thinking about how winter climate change ❄️ is going to affect boreal ecosystems, from wildlife to wildfire. I am facinated by the world of remote sensing 🛰️ and how ecologists leverage remotely sensed data to better understand to role of disturbances in shaping forest ecosystem resilience and recovery in the era of global change.

I am passioante about open and reproducible science. On my GitHub are all the projects I am currently working on, as well as past research projects.
