I am a Ph.D. student at Oregon State University in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences in the Fisheries Oceanography Lab. I received my master’s in Marine Resource Management at OSU in September 2020 and I am continuing on with my research as a PhD student in Ocean Ecology and Biogeochemistry. My current research focuses on forecasting the spawning distributions of larval groundfishes in the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska using the Bering 10K ROMS-NPZ. Some of my research interests include using statistical modeling approaches to understand how groundfish populations respond to changes in ocean conditions over time and space, investigating how different fishery data sources can be used to study population dynamics, and the connections between science and management.

We are using the Bering10K ROMS model to forecast groundfish distributions in the Bering Sea
We investigated how different data sources can be used for Oregon fisheries management.
We looked at how Northern California Current groundfishes are influenced by climate and oceanography.
