I am an interdisciplinary scientist, focused on integrating coastal ecological and geomorphic processes to inform management, outreach, restoration and protection in the Salish Sea. I have lived and recreated throughout this beautiful region for most of my life. I enjoy sea kayaking, paddle-boarding, sailing, hiking and flying kites with my family whenever I get the chance.
