About me

I completed my PhD at the University of Southampton in 2019, funded by the SPITFIRE doctoral training partnership.

I have previously worked as a software development consultant, working on various conservation projects for groups such as The Zoological Society of London and The Arribada Initiative.

In 2019 I founded Open Conservation Technology with Doctor Andrew Hill and Professor Alex Rogers.

Open Conservation Technology

Currently, I'm one of the directors of Open Conservation Technology, a company dedicated to the development and support of low-cost, open-source tools for conservation.

Our work includes AudioMoth, a low-cost acoustic sensor which has been adopted by researchers around the world. We also perform technical consultation for a wide variety of conservation projects.

I have developed a number of software tools to work alongside AudioMoth, including desktop applications for configuring devices and AudioMoth Play, a web-based acoustic analysis application.
