Comment(s)
I am a biologist and ecologist with a strong interest in marine ecosystems, particularly marine conservation, biological oceanography, and marine megafauna. I recently graduated with a double Bachelor of Science degree in Biology and Ecology.
My undergraduate thesis focused on bottlenose dolphin behaviour across different climatic seasons (2022), and its relationship with chlorophyll-a concentration, sea surface temperature, mussel rafts, and boat traffic.
I am particularly interested in pursuing a research-oriented career in marine conservation through scientific research and science communication. I have experience in scientific outreach through a social media project, as well as the development of an educational book on dolphin species worldwide, based on the idea that conservation begins with accessible knowledge.
I am currently seeking opportunities to further develop my skills and contribute to marine research and conservation initiatives.
