About

My focus as the Honeybee Industry Development Officer with the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries is on applied research to improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of the beekeeping industry.

My background is in research on honey bee nutrition, foraging behaviour and fertility. I am currently completing my PhD thesis on the importance of honey bee nutrition for colony health and performance during crop pollination.
