Seaweed Farm Technician

I am working at SAMS as a Seaweed Farm Technician, supporting work both out at the farm and in the seaweed nursery. I also help to progress the farming process.

I studied marine biology at the University of Hull and graduated in 2020. Before joining SAMS I spent a year working for The Scottish Salmon Company on Mull.

I support work at the seaweed farm and within the nursery, also helping to progress our seaweed production processes.

The main skills I’m bringing are in my boat handling and maintenance of aquaculture infrastructure. I also bring the scientific skills I gained at university.
