I am a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Gothenburg (Sweden) under the supervision of Fredrik Jutfelt. I was recently awarded a postdoctoral fellowship from the Wenner-Gren Foundation to investigate the variation in heat tolerance among different life stages of fish. I am particularly interested in applying emerging methods for assessing thermal tolerance to unify climate vulnerability assessments across life stages.
I am currently initiating a globally distributed experiment to collect experimental data on fish embryonic heat tolerance. By uniting research groups globally, we will pave the way to standardise data quality and comparability, reduce the duplication of efforts, and rapidly amass large datasets, answering pressing questions no individual laboratory could tackle alone!
Through these efforts, we will also build a global community of practice: an inclusive network of researchers committed to quantifying and mitigating the impacts of climate change on fish populations. I believe that such collaborative efforts will foster a vibrant exchange of ideas, practices, and values across disciplines. Opening this dialogue is key to tackling the most pressing research questions and translating research findings into actionable strategies to safeguard our precious biodiversity.

Before moving to Sweden, I did my PhD at UNSW Sydney (Australia) with Shinichi Nakagawa and Szymon Drobniak. I then did a short postdoc at The Australian National University (under the supervision of Daniel Noble) and UNSW Sydney (under the supervision of Losia Lagisz and Shinichi Nakagawa).
My interests have always been broad, and I always let myself be guided by curiosity. Recently, I have taken an interest in improving our ability to quantify the impacts of climate change on biodiversity. I am particularly interested in quantifying the benefits and limits of plasticity and adaptation in buffering the impacts of climate change on biodiversity. I have recently been very interested in quantifying the variation in thermal sensitivity among life stages and across trophic interactions, applying novel methods for quantifying heat tolerance in organisms, and integrating microclimatic variation in climate vulnerability assessments.
I have also taken a keen interest in interdisciplinary research. I'm particularly interested in improving our ability to synthesise and analyse data from the literature, overcome geographic and taxonomic biases in ecological datasets, and promote more open and inclusive research. This has led me to become an advocate for Open Science and a board member of The Society for Open, Reproducible, and Transparent Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (SORTEE).
I enjoy using a combination of data synthesis, meta-analysis, and laboratory experiments to address my questions in broad range of organisms, from amphibians to reptiles, fishes, and invertebrates. Above all, I enjoy discussing ideas with other scientists and learn from diverse perspectives— I am always thrilled to initiate new collaborations!
Outside of academia, I love spending time surrounded by nature, discovering new cultures, and trying all the cuisines the world has to offer!

I have done a lot of my research on the land of the Bedegal and Ngunnawal people. I pay my respects to Elders, past, present, and emerging, and extend my respects to Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders who may visit this website. Always was, Always will be.
