Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, my love for aquatic life began with summers in Canada's Great Lakes and New England's coastal waters.

​

I employ interdisciplinary methods to explore how fish adapt to changing environments, working in diverse aquatic systems across Uganda, the Bahamas, Fiji, Canada, and the United States.

​

Tackling climate change's impact on aquatic systems requires a collaborative approach. I work with researchers and stakeholders from various fields to enhance our readiness and resilience to these changes.

​

I am committed to fostering an inclusive and empowering research environment. In teaching, I strive to build a community of confident, kind, and capable scientists.
