I am a NERC funded ONE Planet PhD at Northumbria University. I am conducting interdisciplinary research on Green Belts using a mixed-methods approach to better understand the socio-ecolgical benefits these policy zones, and how they can be better mainstreamed in policy. My research bridges the natural and built environment disciplines and works at the science-policy interface.

My research interests include Natural Capital; Ecosystem Services; Peri-Urban Landscapes; Urban Nature; Socio-Ecological Landscapes; Regional Planning; Landscape Planning; Environmental Policy Mainstreaming and particaptory research methods.
