This site serves as a compendium for my research on the fisheries ecology of coastal and deep-water fishes. I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Guam Marine Laboratory. I was previously a postdoctoral fellow at the Australian Institute of Marine Science in Perth, Western Australia and a supervisory research scientist at the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center in Honolulu. I have worked extensively on the biology and ecology of marine fish species and associated fisheries, primarily in the tropical Indo-Pacific. My research program is firmly planted in highly field-based and quantitative approaches to address questions across many scales, with ongoing projects funded across the tropical Indo-Pacific region. I completed my PhD (2015) in the College of Marine and Environmental Sciences and the Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies at James Cook University in Townsville, Australia.


Research interests:

  • Life-history traits and strategies
  • Demographic variation and associated drivers
  • Biological responses to climate change
  • Fish-habitat interactions
  • Movement and spawning aggregation dynamics
  • Influence of phylogeny on age-based traits
  • Macroecology and scale-dependence
  • Community ecology
  • Science-to-management frameworks
