About

I am a Postdoctoral Scholar in the University of Washington School of Aquatic and Fisheries Science, working on a Washington Sea Grant-funded collaboration between the Roberts Lab (safsoa.wordpress.com) and Maritime High School in Des Moines, WA. I earned my PhD in Physical Oceanography from the University of Washington in May 2022. I am passionate both about my scientific research as well as inclusive science teaching, and making scientific spaces welcoming to all. This website provides more information about my interests. Please reach out if you’re interested in collaborating, whether it be on science, education research, or outreach.

I am a physical oceanographer whose research focuses on mixed layer processes influenced by intense salinity stratification and phytoplankton.
