About

Donegal, 2018

About me: I am an interdisciplinary researcher and maritime policy professional specializing in basking shark conservation, marine policy, social science, and individual-based modeling. I currently serve as a Maritime Policy Analyst with Balsa Research, and a Researcher with the Irish Basking Shark Group. My work bridges science, policy, and public engagement through research, communication, and outreach.

This amazing logo was created by Jacqueline Rajerison. My PhD research involved modeling basking shark aggregations, like those depicted in this image.
