I joined the Anthropology Program at Athabasca University in 2006. I am a biological anthropologist with a specialization in Primatology. I received my MSc from the University of Oxford at the Institute of Biological Anthropology, and my PhD in Anthropology (Primatology) from the University of Calgary. I am currently an associate professor in Biological Anthropology at Athabasca University. Hailing originally from the tiny island of Bermuda, I currently live in Rocky Mountains of Canmore, Alberta.
Research interests
My research interests are broadly centered on primate behaviour and ecology, with specific emphases on the ecology and cognition of vocal behaviour. Species of interest include chimpanzees (Budongo Forest, Uganda), spider and howler monkeys (Runaway Creek Nature Reserve and Monkey River, Belize) and vervet monkeys (Samara Game Reserve, South Africa).
