I'm a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at AIMS@JCU (Australian Institute of Marine Science / James Cook University) based in Townsville, North Queensland. My work sits at the intersection of deep learning, computer vision, and marine science -- building AI systems that help us understand and monitor ocean ecosystems at scale.
- Creator of the DeepFish dataset -- a benchmark for underwater fish analysis
- Building tools for automated reef monitoring, fish measurement, and underwater image quality assessment
- Focused on making deep learning practical for ecological research
