I am a Curation Officer at the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria. I have been with RBGV since 2001, working in various roles within Collections and Plant Identifications in the National Herbarium of Victoria. Since 2011 I have been responsible for curating the cryptogamic component of the State Botanical Collection - fungi, lichens, bryophytes, algae, ferns and fern-allies (I also look after the gymnosperms). My interests include collecting and identifying vascular plants, bryophytes and fungi. I'm also a pretty keen birdwatcher.
