I am a Research Project Support Officer and PhD student working on the Horizon 2020 EU Green Deal “SUPERB upscaling forest restoration” project. The largest transnational forest restoration initiative ever launched in Europe. I am based in the Molecular Ecology and Evolution group at Bangor (MEEB) and supervised at Bangor University by Professor Si Creer and Dr Amy Ellison.

I am interested molecular ecology and how we can DNA techniques to study important ecological questions. In my role as a RPSO for the SUPERB project I will be using metabarcoding of soil and bulk aerial arthropod samples to investigate the effect of forest restoration projects on biodiversity and forests communities.
