marine scientist | ocean wanderer | researcher
Michelle has spent her career exploring the delicate balance between marine conservation, sustainable fisheries, and the communities that depend on them—from the reef flats of the Coral Triangle to the remote waters of Western Australia. With a passion for biological oceanography, her research explores the intricate relationships between marine species, their environments, and the impacts of human activities on fragile ecosystems.
Never one to stay still for long, she’s always chasing the next big question: How do we protect the ocean while still embracing the adventure it offers? Whether knee-deep in research, out on the water, or documenting the untold stories of our seas, Michelle is driven by the belief that science and storytelling together can make waves.
Now, with exciting developments on the horizon, she’s gearing up for something big—a new way to connect the ocean’s thinkers, explorers, and protectors. What’s next? Stay tuned… the adventure is only just beginning.
A collection of research projects and adventures—a blend of science, storytelling, and ocean exploration. From fisheries management in Western Australia to conservation efforts in the Coral Triangle, every project is fueled by a passion for protecting our blue planet.
Dive in, explore, and let’s make waves together. 🌊
Through hands-on research, data collection, and environmental analysis, Michelle investigates the health of marine ecosystems, from coral reefs to seagrass meadows. My work focuses on conservation, sustainability, and uncovering the hidden stories of the ocean through science.
