Higher Degree by Research Candidate
School of Biological Sciences

I am a PhD candidate in the Gillanders Aquatic Ecology Lab with research focussed on reconstructing reproductive life histories of sharks using archival tissues (e.g., vertebrae). I am interested in Chondrichthyan (sharks, rays and chimeras) biology and ecology, their fisheries and conservation, the public education of human-shark interactions and marine science communication.
