I am a fish enthusiast with a broad interest in underwater ecology. I have always loved anything that could bring me closer to my favourite animals, from watching documentaries and reading books to snorkeling, SCUBA diving, angling and fish keeping.

I have decided to take my passion to a professional level and start a career in science so I can actively contribute to the study of fishes. I am currently doing my PhD at the Kotrschal group, studying the predation and invasion ecology of lionfish (Pterois miles).
