Research Summary: I have always enjoyed seafood but found the ocean to be largely a mystery and it’s hard to wrap your head around what life is like for the organisms we harvest and harder still to imagine how they interact with one-another. I’m interested in piecing together those interactions, specifically who eats who and why, to better understand how our own interactions might cascade through, and possibly unexpectedly alter, marine communities.
