I'm a PhD student in Ecology at the University of Canterbury in Aotearoa - New Zealand looking at the interactions between native and introduced fish species and the environment, specifically how these interactions affect native fish demography. All my research to date, including during my BSc and MSc, has been driven by a desire to understand the inter- and intraspecific interactions of fish, the role of the environment in those interactions, and how such dynamics affect the broader species communities or freshwater ecosystems.
