Currently, I’m a final year PhD candidate at The University of Hong Kong working with David Dudgeon and Jia Huan Liew on the impacts of fragmentation by dams on diadromous species at global and regional scales. Previously, I earned an MRes in Tropical Forest Ecology from Imperial College London examining multiple-stressor interactions on ecosystem functioning using pond mesocosms with Guy Woodward (I was landlocked during covid). Prior to my academic journey I founded Freshwater Collective, a conservation organization with the aim of bridging the gap between research and education of freshwater ecology.
