I have a Doctoral degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Rome La Sapienza, Italy and a MSc in Zoology from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. Since 1996 I have been engaged in research and projects with a strong spatial modeling component in natural systems and plantation forests both locally and internationally.  My interests and experience include ecological modeling and geospatial analysis for risk evaluation.
