I'm an MSc student in marine biology at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. I conduct research through the Johansen Fish Resilience Lab at the Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology. I'm currently studying the effects of sedimentation on the foraging behavior of herbivorous coral reef fish. Before grad school, I got a double BS in environmental geology and environmental studies at Tufts University before working at a shark research lab in the Bahamas. In my free time, you can find me climbing, running, or reading at the beach.

Tropical fish moving to colder regions are affected by projected seasonal ocean temperature and acidification
Can tropical and temperate fish coexist?
Behavior
Researchers watched a ton of parrotfish in their sleep to uncover sleeping patterns and nighttime habitat use
It’s not creepy if it’s for science!
