During my postgraduate studies, in quantitative marine science (fisheries oceanography), my focus was on temperate and tropical pelagic predators and associated systems. Presently, as an early career postgraduate fellow, I am engaged in research informing the management of the species and ecosystems impacted by benthic fisheries in the Southern Ocean.
