Hello world, it's time for an #Introduction and my first-ever toot π
I'm an #Antarctic researcher π¦πΆ and #PhD candidate working at Monash University as part of the SAEF research programme.
My work focuses on #Ice - #Climate interactions, and particularly the processes behind #Melt on #IceShelves in #EastAntarctica.
Away from #Research, I enjoy #Reading π, #Walking πΆββοΈ, #Cooking π¨βπ³, #Photography πΈ, and working through the Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list π΅
Come say hi!
