I am a plant ecologist interested in the evolution of lineages. I'm currently looking at changes in sexual system with biome shifts in in New Zealand Veronica. My previous work has included examining the role of biome shifts in lineage diversification, macroevolution of mast seeding, and genomic downsizing in the New Zealand flora.
