Hi! I'm James, and I’m a PhD candidate at the University of Newcastle supervised by Prof. Bill Leggat, A/Prof. Troy Gaston and being co-supervised by Prof. Jane Williamson from Macquarie University and A/Prof. Tracy Ainsworth from UNSW.

My current area of research is the ecology of reef fishes at Norfolk Island, an island in the subtropical South Pacific. Subtropical islands have ecological importance as fishes make poleward range expansions with climate change.
