I began working on the Shark Bay Dolphin Project as an undergraduate in 2008. I graduated from Georgetown University in 2010 with a BSc. in Biology having completed a thesis entitled "Patterns of maternal care in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) in Shark Bay, Western Australia" with advisor Dr. Janet Mann. I currently work full-time for the project with research interests in maternal care and calf development, especially with regard to the effects of provisioning and tourism.
