I am a recent Science graduate from Monash University, having recently completed my Honours year. My project involved researching the effects of climate change induced drought upon the toxicity levels of cassava. I am currently working as a Research Assistant in the Plant Ecophysiology lab at Monash.I majored in Ecology/Conservation Biology and Physiology. My areas of interest and study include climate change, environmental science, and conservation. Throughout my degree, I have developed strong research, analytical and scientific writing skills. I am a highly self-motivated and independent worker who also performs well in a team environment.I have also undertaken an internship with the Dolphin Research Institute, involving field research to support the conservation of dolphins in Western Port Bay. I was also involved in the Dolphin Distancing program, aiming to engender behavioural change of boat owners and prevent dolphin harassment.
