I am a marine disease ecologist at the Hakai Institute, an adjunct professor in the UBC Institute of Oceans and Fisheries and a member of the Biodiversity Research Centre.  I am particularly interested in the interactions between infected hosts and their communities, as well as the impact of temperature on host-parasite interactions. 
​

 Research Interests: Marine community ecology, marine parasite ecology, marine invertebrates, physiological ecology, larval ecology, statistical design and modeling and invasion biology
