Research Interests

My research interests span from basic ecology to social drivers of coastal resource use. My doctoral research investigated how species interactions affect community structure and coastal habitat restoration, specifically of seagrasses.

Research and Activities

Using a combination of experimental field studies and analytical syntheses, I aim to answer fundamental and applied questions about coastal ecosystems with the goal of developing new methods for habitat restoration and conservation.
