Biography:
I aid in kelp forest monitoring surveys for the SBC-LTER. Most of my work is conducted using SCUBA and aboard the R/V Kelpfish. In the lab, I help bridge the gap between data collection during field surveys and data management through data quality checking and statistical analysis. Additionally, I coordinate and oversee undergraduate interns who are working in our lab.
Research Interests:
Marine ecology, fish ecology, climate change, trophic dynamics
