Summary

My research background includes everything from the ecology and health of seagrasses, mangroves and corals (including contributing to the GCRMN) to the biology, ecology and management of both coral reef and pelagic fishes, as well as assessments of marine protected areas and the recreational fishery in Bermuda. In addition to working on topics relevant to the development of management plans for various local commercial fishery species, recent research has focused on the dynamics and management of grouper spawning aggregations and the biology, ecology and control of the invasive lionfish in Bermuda. I am currently leading a project investigating the dynamics of Bermuda’s baitfish populations and the fishery for them.
