Research interest

I am an agroecologist specializing in plant ecology and biogeochemistry.  I received my PhD from the University of Toronto, conducting research on plant-soil interactions in cocoa agroforestry systems in Ghana with applications for sustainable land use. As a Banting Fellow in SES, my research with Claudia Wagner-Riddle is focused on understanding the belowground mechanisms of cover crop diversification for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
