My interests focus on promoting linkages between ocean science and policy / management, including MPAs, multi-use zoning, fisheries, protected species, and aquaculture. Currently, I am a Project Coordinator for Communication Partnerships for Science and the Sea (or COMPASS; see www.compassonline.org) and for Dr. Stephen Palumbi's laboratory.
