My research centers on ecological and evolutionary genetics of marine fish, especially those subject to commercial exploitation. I work alongside physiologists and ecologists to understand the genetics of fishery species, many of which now teeter on the verge of collapse from overharvesting. By combining genetics with migration tracks obtained from electronic tags deployed by ecologists, we have begun to show that even marine fishery species found throughout the world’s oceans exhibit homing behaviors such that they effectively subdivide themselves into smaller, genetically discrete units or populations. Documenting the unique geographic range and behaviors associated with each population can improve fishery management. I also devise DNA tools to measure physiological characteristics of populations with the hope of monitoring aspects in their marine environment crucial to their survival. This provides insight into knowing how a fishery might respond to climate change or habitat loss/damage in the future. I received a Ph.D. in genetics, ecology, and evolution from the University of Hawaii.
