Overview

After completing my BA in Biology at NYU, I focused on the marine environment by pursing an MSc in Marine Environmental Protection at Bangor University. After graduating in 2018, I worked as a Marine Biologist at the Maldives Marine Research Institute focusing on coral reef research.

Currently, I am a PhD researcher assessing how coral trophic strategies differ with resource availability across space and time, and how this affects their capacity for survival and resilience. My PhD is funded by the NERC ENVISION program.
