About Me

......
I am currently doing my PhD at James Cook University in Queensland, Australia on the phylogeography of widespread Indo-Pacific parrotfish. I am in my final year and am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Right now I am finishing up my thesis which is due the same day as my first child (8 May 2009)!

Outside my research, I enjoy cooking, rock climbing, fine wines, and fine Englishmen.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Claudia's Mom.
And David Bowie.
