I am a teaching-focused marine biologist with research interests in the evolutionary, ecological, and behavioural effects of environmental heterogeneity on life history traits of tropical fishes. My research combines theory with empirical and field observations in order to better understand the impact of environmental changes on fish behaviour. In addition, I am passionate about teaching and I am particularly interested in finding novel and interactive ways to communicate science and empower students to learn and research.
I am always available to discuss future opportunities/projects/supervisions.
