Fisheries research scientist and advocate for improving how we communicate. Things that make me happy: my family, books, coffee, travel, my cabin in the woods. Oh, when people understand the dire need to protect biodiversity.
LAST day for early registration for the @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social annual meeting in San Antonio. Plenty of excellent fish science, networking, and motivation to be found! PLUS I am running a science communication workshop with the ever-inspirational Carolyn Hall on Sunday August 10th.
