I work in the Data Team to assist with the smooth delivery of DASSH (the UK Archive for Marine Species and Habitats Data) by conducting digitisation, standardisation and quality assurance activities across a range of Marine Biodiversity data sets. Additionally i provide support in collating and reporting statistics, promotion via social media platforms, liaising with partners and stakeholders, recording one off species observations and assisting with contract deliverables.

Prior to this, I worked as a Research Coordinator collating and alalysing data on marine wildlife. I have worked in a variety of subject areas including seagrass restoration, marine litter distribution, marine mammal parasitology, and marine mammal spatiotemporal distribution.

In my spare time I will often be found running along the coast path in Cornwall. I am a member of Cornwall athletic club and regularly participate in races from 5k to 50 miles. I also enjoy swimming, cycling, and climbing.
