Anchored in Science, Driven by Discovery
My passion for marine science encouraged me to receive a BS in Oceanography from Texas A&M University in 2019. I harbor extensive experience collecting and processing Oceanographic data on-board NOAA-operated research vessels as well as oceanographic research and education on-board the SSV Corwith Crammer as a lead scientist for Sea Education Association. Motivated to learn and discover more about the oceanic environment, I pursued a Masters in Integrative Biology at the University of South Florida.
I use an interdisciplinary approach; combining advanced technology, data analytics, and marine science to create a holistic view of the ocean and to uncover its many mysteries. To learn more about my work, check out my current projects and past publications.

Research


Bolinopsis infundibulum: A Voracious Predator
September 2020-May 2022
Utilizing the incredible power of Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute's remotely operated vehicle video footage I quantified the dynamic predator-prey relationships between deep water ctenophores and copepods. In situ quantification of ingested prey, swimming and lobe contraction speeds and digestion rates across temperature range
Tiny and Toxic: A look at diatoms in the GoM
May 2019
Joint international project focusing on the toxic diatom species Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata which was identified to be located both in the Gulf of Mexico and Gulf of Naples, Italy. Performed DNA sequencing as well as worked to increase monitoring alerts for the species using an Imaging FlowCytobot for the Texas FWC
