I develop and integrate statistical, computational and ecological approaches to assess marine populations, fisheries and ecosystem change. My work combines stock assessment, spatio-temporal modelling, population and community dynamics, life-history theory, environmental information and multidimensional indicators to quantify uncertainty, diagnose changes in stock condition and support adaptive, ecosystem-based decision-making. I focus on small pelagic fish and Eastern Boundary Upwelling Systems (EBUS), while developing transferable methods for highly variable and data-limited marine systems.

A scheduled GitHub Actions workflow maintains the profile each day and can also be executed manually:

1. Publications: ORCID provides the canonical list of scholarly works; DOI records are enriched through Crossref and rendered in APA style with my name highlighted in bold.
2. Research pipeline: planned, in-preparation and under-review manuscripts are read from assets/data/research-pipeline.json, keeping unpublished work under manual control.
3. Featured projects: the selected repositories are defined in assets/data/featured-projects.json; GitHub supplies their current visibility and primary language.
4. Profile metrics: the GitHub API recalculates repository statistics and language composition, then regenerates the two SVG cards stored in this repository.
5. Synchronization: the canonical publication JSON is used by my academic website, reducing duplicated manual updates between GitHub and the website.

I am open to international research collaboration, doctoral and postdoctoral opportunities, research-software projects, and quantitative work related to marine ecology, fisheries assessment and ecosystem-based management.
