TEACHING INTERESTS
I teach at all university levels, including introductory biology in first year classes. A highlight for me is teaching my 4th year paper on Pest Management, Biosecurity and Law for which I've written the book "Pests and Pestilence: The Management of Invasive Species, Pests and Disease in New Zealand" published by Te Herenga Waka University Press.
