Research Description

I am interested in plant-microbe interactions, specifically fungal symbioses in marine and coastal systems, and I am passionate about bridging the local research to implementation gap by exploring real world applications for conservation and restoration. Currently, I am investigating the seagrass microbiome, specifically associated marine fungi, on O’ahu, Hawai’i.
