I am a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Institute of Marine Sciences in Morehead City, NC, within the Earth, Marine, and Environmental Sciences department.
My research spans multiple topics, including the phenology of Atlantic shark species in North Carolina, the microbial communities associated with sharks and rays, the development of new protocols for DNA analysis in species identification, and telemetry studies to identify migration corridors and hotspots of migratory species.
