Welcome!
As a geographer and geoecologist, I am passionate about understanding long-term environmental and climatic changes, with a focus on the natural and human dimensions of changing wildfire regimes.
Currently, I am a visiting researcher at the Institute of Tibetan Plateau Research, China, and a guest researcher at the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Germany. Find more details about my background here.
This website represents a personal portfolio, so feel free to have a look at some of my previous research and activities, including past publications, awards and funding, outreach, as well as news and contact details right below!
