I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Environmental Science at Radboud University in Nijmegen. My research examines animal movement patterns and behaviours from a macroecological perspective as well as examining the consequences of altered movement patterns related to anthropogenic impacts. More broadly, I am interested in large scale patterns in ecology, biogeography and evolution that can aid our understanding of species vulnerability to changing environments that can be utilised for conservation. This includes global patterns in species richness, species extinction risk, energetics and allometric scaling. 


Previously, I was a Postdoc at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre (SBiK-F) and Goethe University in Frankfurt. I examined human impacts on animal movements using tracking data across multiple species and continents. I completed my PhD within the Evolution and Ecology Research Centre at the University of New South Wales, Australia. My PhD work encompassed macroecological patterns in mammals, more specifically changes in behaviours and patterns that have occurred with the colonisation of novel environments.
