Welcome

Welcome, and thanks for taking the time to visit my website. 

 

Sruth means current or flow in the Irish language. 

These webpages outline some of the past and present currents of marine biology and social science research, ocean literacy and conservation that run through my work. Links to science communication outputs, educational tools and scientific publications I have worked on and some of the wonderful people I have worked alongside with are also included.

 

I'm interested in collaborative, transdisciplinary and truly inclusive work.
