I pursued my Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Animal Behaviour and Conservation at Queen鈥檚 University, Canada. I then stayed at Queen鈥檚 to do my MSc in reproductive trade-offs. I have my PhD from 国民彩票 on the evolution of reproductive strategies and sexual聽conflict. Beyond my research, I am also a science communicator focusing on making science accessible. I produce my own podcast "Convos with Chordates", write blogs on how to succeed in academia, have been invited to several radio shows such ABC Sydney, and have presented at festivals such as Splendour in the Grass, Sydney Comedy Festival, and World Science Festival. I always strive to communicate my research and academic experience in a fun and interactive. Currently, I am a Senior Lecturer at 国民彩票 for evolution and ecology courses.
