My father is from Manchester, England. My mother's family came from Cornwall in the late 1800s. I was born in Nelson, grew up in Dunedin and live in Hamilton.

I started in forestry science and earned my PhD in forest economics from University of Wisconsin-Madison.

I am passionate about science affecting meaningful change for current and future generations. This is reflected in my research on innovation systems and processes, and preference for community-led research, using action research.
