I am a Research Associate in the Applied Bioinformatics Group, where I joined in early 2026. I completed my PhD at The University of Western Australia in 2016, focusing on plant-microbe ecophysiology. My previous research has explored the role of both mutualistic and pathogenic microbes in structuring native plant communities. My current research now focuses on building crop pangenomes to integrate large-scale genomic data and uncover variation underlying key agronomic traits.
