My past research has focused on the potential for individual behaviour to impact upon population dynamics and community structure in host-parasitoid systems. Currently, I am working on providing a trait-based understanding of natural vegetation as a provider of pest-control ecosystem services in South Africa. I am also pursuing studies in pedagogy, specifically improving student-led learning and maximising employability.
