Marine ecologist, science writer, & fish nerd
Hi there! I’m a marine ecologist and science communicator with a passion for ocean conservation and public outreach. I recently earned my Ph.D. from Florida International University, where I studied the movement and behavior of great hammerhead sharks and their prey in the Predator Ecology and Conservation Lab. Before that, I completed my M.S. at the University of North Carolina–Chapel Hill, where I focused on seafood mislabeling and red snapper management in the South Atlantic.
I love connecting science and storytelling—whether I’m in the field, at sea, or writing about weird and wonderful ocean life. Please feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear from you!
