I am a physical oceanographer in the Ocean Circulation and Air-Sea Interaction group at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), working with Dr Lee-Lueng Fu on NASA's upcoming SWOT satellite mission. My research focuses on mesoscale and submesoscale ocean current variability. I moved to JPL in November 2018 from the University of New South Wales in Sydney (UNSW). At UNSW I worked with a variety of observational platforms to investigate the structure and variability of the East Australian Current and its eddy field, and how it influences the shelf waters of eastern Australia. I obtained my PhD from the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, University of Miami. See my CV for more details.
