My research interests primarily relate to the law of the sea, international fisheries law, environmental law issues, management, and regulation of different environmental impacts. I broadly research environmental issues in the fisheries sector, sustainable transitions, ecosystem-based management, and the implementation of legal frameworks, both nationally and internationally. I also have a general interest in international environmental law and human rights.
I have recently written a PhD titled "Charting the Implementation of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries in Tuna RFMOs: Challenges and Opportunities for Future Conservation of Non-Target Species." In my dissertation, I developed a case study examining how states can collaborate regionally to achieve more sustainable fisheries management, with a particular focus on the duty and responsibility to reduce ghost fishing.
I engage in both doctrinal legal research and empirical legal research, and I participate in several interdisciplinary initiatives related to my research interests.
