Biography
I am a professional in Fisheries and Aquaculture with a Doctoral degree in Aquaculture Technology and experience in teaching, research, and undergraduate and postgraduate supervision. My research focuses on aquaculture nutrition, fish health and toxicology, aquatic pollution, and stress physiology, with particular interest in understanding how environmental stressors influence fish productivity and survival. I have participated in nationally and internationally linked research activities and actively contribute to departmental administration, curriculum development, and postgraduate coordination. I am committed to capacity building, mentoring students, and promoting sustainable aquaculture practices.
