Hi my name is Alice and I am a postdoctoral researcher at Memorial University of Newfoundland in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. I obtained my PhD from the University of Toronto (Canada) and my thesis was on the sources, transport, and fate of plastic pollution in the environment. I am an environmental analytical scientist who loves to model and work with big datasets. I conduct field research and build models to show how plastic pollution is transported throughout the ocean, how it is transformed over time, and where it ends up. I also study how plastic moves carbon. Much of my plastic pollution research directly informs policy, especially my solutions-based research. Aside from my research, I am also a big environmental advocate who does a lot of work around climate change and increasing waste literacy in my community. Welcome to my GitHub page and hope you enjoy your stay!
