A computational biologist turning genomic data into breeding decisions for the past decade. At Agriculture Victoria I build the sequencing pipelines behind DairyBio, a $50M national dairy program, from SNP arrays to long-read Nanopore and PacBio genomes. That work produced the largest structural-variant catalogue for dairy and beef cattle, 30+ peer-reviewed papers, and invited talks at PAG, AAABG and AGTA.

Applying Nanopore and PacBio ultra-long reads to make sense of variants, reaching the parts short reads can't.
Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq to see which genes are switched on, in which cells, and when.
Finding signal in large genomic datasets: variants, traits, and the links between them.
Building scalable, reproducible pipelines in Nextflow, plus the small scripts that quietly hold a project together.
SNP arrays through to long-read sequencing, hunting genetic variants and mapping complex traits for the Australian dairy industry.
Molecular genetics of lobsters and fish at the University of the Sunshine Coast, my first deep dive into genomes.
Early molecular-genetics work at International University, HCMC, where the whole story started.
