Gabby Walley
Research Coordinator
Temperate reef ecosystems are invaluable for the current function of our planet. My career thus far has been to provide technical assistance for temperate reef researchers that are forever learning how to best use and maintain our marine ecosystems. With extensive commercial boating and scientific diving experience, I am able to provide our lab with the technical skills and creative thinking required to facilitate the extensive field work.
