I am a scientist studying the causes and consequences of variation in animal behaviour, with a particular focus on animal material technology, such as nest building and tool use. 

In my current postdoctoral position at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, I am broadening my research focus to include questions on the behavioural and cognitive dynamics underpinning rapid range expansion.

My research, to date, relies on birds as study systems, in both a field and laboratory setting.
