I am an Evolutionary Biologist with an interest in Behavioural Ecology and Conservation Biology.

My interest in Behavioural Ecology revolves around understanding how the process of sexual selection can shape reproductive traits that determine fitness. My research in the field of sexual selection primarily uses frogs and insects as model systems to test predictions made by theoretical models. At present, I am particularly interested in understanding the evolutionary causes and consequences of mate choice, polyandry and sperm competition.

My interest in Conservation Biology is focussed on using Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) as a tool for managing endangered species. However, I am also interested in assessing the impacts of human mediated environmental change on evolutionary processes that affect population viability.
