Biography

I have explored the topics of genetics and behaviour from a variety of perspectives: a B.Sc. in molecular biology and genetics, a graduate diploma in genetic counseling, and an honours year and Ph.D. studying honey bee reproductive and hygienic behaviour.
After working on the genetics of a thelytokous parasitic honey bee clone at Sydney University, I joined the Kronauer lab in 2011 to work on the genomics of the thelytokous ant, Cerapachys biroi.
I have also dabbled in lecturing, running high school science workshops and appearing on children’s television.
