I joined the communications team in April 2015, after 13 years in journalism, having been enthused by the exciting work done at SAMS. I endeavour to highlight SAMS research to improve public knowledge of complex marine issues.

I am responsible for communicating SAMS' research, education and general news to a broad audience through news, features, podcasts and social media.

I also provide training for staff and students to ensure they can communicate their findings in the most effective way.
