I’m a Physical Oceanographer and a PhD student in Australian Antarctic Program Partnership (AAPP) in Hobart. I study the ocean around Antarctica, especially the warm water melts Antarctica which interests me a lot. The warm water can be brought to the base of the glacier region by different processes, such as the currents and tides. My research is important because we help to understand the behaviour of the ocean and care about the health of Antarctica.

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.
