I am interested in identifying strategies that may be used to foster individuals’ connectedness with nature (CWN). At present, I am analyzing the potential of knowledge-based activities (e.g., environmental education programs) to influence CWN. I am currently working as a research assistant at the Botany Department at Trinity College Dublin, working primarily under the EU-funded project GoGreenRoutes, and I am very excited to contribute to the pioneering NovelEco project. I hold an MSc in Biodiversity & Conservation from Trinity College Dublin and a BSc in Biological Sciences from Maynooth University. I have previously interned with the Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, and I am a passionate gardener outside of work.
