I completed my PhD with Locke Rowe at the University of Toronto in 2004. I am currently a research fellow and faculty member in the Evolution and Ecology Research Centre at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.

My main research interests are the processes (mechanisms) and evolutionary consequences of sexual selection and conflict, with a focus on the evolution and genetic architecture of sexual dimorphism, the role of environmental factors in generating variation within and between sexes (i.e., condition dependence, and transgenerational environmental effects), and the relation between sexual selection and ageing.
