Assisting Dr. Katie Bigham's research on the time series data of benthic macrofauna at methane seeps at Southern Hydrate Ridge.- Creating machine learning models to accurately analyze population dynamics at Methane seeps- Managing and annotating large datasets - Directed with observing ecological cycles over large timeframes- Work independent hours requiring high attention to detail

- Developed and completed a research project while aboard the ship- Filmed and documented deep sea benthic and pelagic organisms using the ROV camera systems- Processed deep sea water samples and learned scientific methods

- Designed and executed Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) missions to create detailed mosaics, aiding in accurate population counts and monitoring.- Processed and organized biological samples (blood, skin, and teeth) from California Sea Lions and Northern Fur Seals, ensuring meticulous documentation and preparation for lab analysis.- Captured and handled Northern Fur Seal pups, including weighing, measuring, and tagging to support research and population management efforts.- Collected fecal samples to contribute to the understanding of diet and health of marine mammal populations.- Collaborated with a small, specialized team in the field for five weeks, demonstrating adaptability and effective communication in a remote, high-stakes environment.

- Developed 6 week curriculums for my students ranging from beginning to 4.5+ UTR skill levels- Adapted to different learning styles by providing close 1 on 1 interactions- Promoted a healthy and active lifestyle through my cardio tennis classes
