Faculty Member, Nicholas School of the Environment
Research Scientist
Division of Marine Science and Conservation
About
I am a broadly skilled biological oceanographer and conservation biologist who focuses on the foraging ecology and habitat needs of marine animals in relation to pressing conservation issues. I have active projects involving the oceanographic drivers of foraging ecology in marine vertebrates, the design and utility of marine protected areas; the effects of climate change on marine animals and the sustainability of incidental mortality and directed harvests of marine animals. I am an accomplished lecturer with experience in large and small classes at both undergraduate and graduate levels, including teaching field courses in remote locations. I have extensive experience incorporating new technologies into teaching, including the use of research-grade global circulation models (e.g. EdGCM) and custom digital textbooks deployed on mobile devices like the Apple iPad.
