I am part of the Fisheries Monitoring and Compliance section and the Science section at the Secretariat of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), where I work as a Research, Monitoring and Compliance Analyst. I assist with the administration and analysis of fishery compliance and ecological data, applying my knowledge of science and policy to support monitoring systems. My research focuses on the development of effective MCS analytical tools, with particular interest in IUU fishing and catch documentation schemes. I have also worked with UTAS on the endangered Maugean skate’s life history.

About the BEAKER STREET ROVING SCIENTIST PROGRAM
Each August, hundreds of Roving Scientists descend upon Hobart, filling up pubs and chatting to strangers as part of Beaker Street Festival. Discover a new world down the lens of microscope, and joining the least-boring bar conversations you’ve ever heard and these free (the chats – not the drinks) events.
For Scientists, Beaker Street’s Roving Scientist Program offers an excellent outreach, professional development, and networking opportunity. It’s the nerdiest and funnest way to share your research with the public, expand your network, and be inspired by leaders in all sectors of science and science communication.
