Research Areas: Marine ecology, fisheries science, otolith chemistry, mixing and migration, early life history

My research focuses on advancing our ecological and evolutionary understanding of marine and anadromous species and contributing to management and conservation efforts. More specifically, I examine how environmental variation impacts the dispersal, distribution, growth, and survival of marine organisms.
