I am starting a new position at the University of Alberta in January 2018.

My research spans non-native plant invasions, macroecology, and restoration ecology. A central theme of my work is to understand why habitats become susceptible to invasive non-native plants and how management actions affect non-target ecosystem components. I also examine the mechanistic drivers of biodiversity in plant communities. My research questions involve grasslands of Asia, Europe and North America. Recently, I also launched a study on non-native plant invasions in European woodlands. I address my questions through a toolbox that encompasses vegetation surveys, data mining and experiments. - See my list of publications here.
I began teaching already when I was an undergraduate student. Since then, I have taught courses in botany, ecology and programming with R.
