Interests: I grew up in Canada and Auburn, AL (War Eagle!) and headed back North to get my BA in Biology with a specialization in Marine Science from Boston University. While at BU I interned at the New England Aquarium working in the penguin and dive department. I also studied at Woods Hole and had the opportunity to study sperm whale acoustics in Dominica. After graduation I worked for a nonprofit Cetacean research organization in Gloucester, MA where I collected field behavioral data on marine mammals and assisted in photo identification. I also worked as a fisheries and endangered species observer for NMFS which required living on vessels for up to 40 days without ever seeing land (although I became very friendly with sea turtles and various fish species). Following my field work I had a 2 year stint teaching marine science and AP Biology at a high school in Ocala, FL. I am studying Odontocete bioacoustics using Auditory Evoked Potential measurements. |
