I am a conservation scientist interested in rewilding, historical ecology, extinction, and megafauna and their ecological impacts (particularly large herbivores). I am part of the "Empty Forests and Extinction Filters" project, where I look at extinction patterns in tropical forest mammals, at different spatio-temporal scales. 

I am also interested in interdisciplinary conservation science, and promoting collaboration between natural sciences, social science, and environmental humanities. I am a member of the Interdisciplinary Conservation Network at NMBU.
