Hello and welcome!
Hello and welcome!
I'm a young researcher with a deep curiosity for the ocean, our changing climate, and the ways different scientific fields connect. I’m especially drawn to interdisciplinary research, where linking ideas across disciplines leads to new and exciting discoveries.

Beyond my research, I am dedicated to science communication. I love making complex scientific ideas accessible and engaging for non-scientific audiences, helping bridge the gap between the lab and the wider world.

When I'm not working, you’ll likely find me in or around the ocean snorkelling, swimming and exploring. I also love solving puzzles and competing in pub quizzes, both of which satisfy my love for problem-solving. I’m an avid reader too, especially of murder mysteries. They feel like the ultimate puzzles to unravel! And as a morning person, I love starting my days with the sunrise, ready to dive into new challenges and opportunities.
