Ever wondered what’s really happening at the ends of our Earth? I am on a mission to find out! I explore polar oceans, ice, and atmosphere, studying how these incredible systems respond to climate change. Using on-the-ground observations, cutting-edge satellite data and complex computer models, I piece together the puzzle pieces of the Earth system– interactions, change and ultimately, how its fate impacts all of us. I am part of an exciting proposal for a new NASA satellite, giving an unprecedented view of our planet’s frozen heart. Be amazed by the world of ice and its profound connection to our future!

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.
