Research Interests:
During previous lives Holly was a technical writer, computer programmer, and an astrophysicist. In summer 2008 she completed a transition into the life sciences, with a master's degree in tropical conservation biology at the University of Hawai'i at Hilo. Her research thesis involved a study of the morphology and genetics of the diadematid Echinothrix sea urchins of Hawai'i. She is now a PhD student in the Zoology Department at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa, with interests in marine biodiversity, speciation, epizootiology, and the evolutionary effects of anthropogenic stressors upon marine life.
