ABOUT ME
Field ecology with a focus on mammals and conservation.
I am a wildlife biologist and conservation researcher interested in understanding mammals, their ecology, and the landscapes they inhabit.
My work combines field-based wildlife research, biodiversity monitoring and ecological approaches to understand wildlife communities and inform conservation.
I am particularly interested in mammalian ecology, carnivore conservation and the ecology of wild canids, with a growing research focus on the wildlife of the Eastern Himalaya.

RESEARCH
Research interests shaped by field ecology and conservation.
My research interests centre on understanding wildlife, particularly mammals and carnivores, through field-based ecological research and spatial approaches.
Carnivore Conservation
Exploring carnivore ecology, conservation challenges and the factors influencing their persistence in human-dominated and protected landscapes.
Canid Ecology
A developing research focus on wild canids, their ecology, distribution, behaviour and conservation.
Spatial & Landscape Ecology
Using GIS, camera-trap data and spatial approaches to understand wildlife distribution and landscape patterns.
PROJECTS
Field research and conservation in the Eastern Himalaya.
Selected projects involving biodiversity assessment, wildlife monitoring and community-based conservation.
