Research Focus and Interest

South Africa has a unique and unimaginable coastal line that I am drawn to. In terms of my interest there is no limitations in the type of research I am willing to conduct along our coastline, in order to protect, preserve and sustain its beauty for the future.

Currently I am involved with assisting with long-term monitoring that includes rocky shores and BRUVs.
