I am a field ecologist with particular interest in interactions between birds and intertidal communities. The bulk of my research focuses on stopover ecology of migrating shorebirds, community-level interactions among intertidal invertebrates, and top-down and bottom-up effects in marine systems. Honours and graduate students are heavily involved in all aspects of my research.

I enjoy teaching a broad range of biological subjects, with a particular interest in quantitative field ecology and statistics and experimental design.
