Biography
I am a pasture research agronomist and rangelands extension officer with 15 years of experience in pastures research and grazing land management throughout Queensland and as far afield as East Africa. At present, I lecture within the Bachelor of Veterinary Sciences Program on the topics of land management, pastures, soils and toxic plants. My research interests centre around pasture legumes and grasses for northern Australia.
