Hi! I'm Frankie (he/him, settler), an Australian-American ecologist and storyteller. I gather stories that help people notice and care for the more-than-human community of life. My research interests include coastal ecology, global change biology, and social-ecological systems. I am committed to research that strengthens movements for Indigenous sovereignty and justice. In my free time I enjoy reading, surfing, listening to birds, raising houseplants, rock climbing, and exploring rocky intertidal zones.
