Biography

I am a Research Fellow at the National Decommissioning Centre specialising in fish ecology and artificial reefs.I am working with stakeholders to develop a better understanding of the environmental effects of artificial reefs within a multidisciplinary framework. I have experience in marine ecotoxicological research; studying ecosystem dynamics and the bioaccumulation of organic and inorganic contaminants in the marine food web. I previously worked as an Environmental consultant.
