BIO
Graham grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and received a B.S. in biology from Baldwin Wallace University in Berea, OH (2017). He then received a M.S. in natural resource ecology and management with an emphasis in fisheries and aquatic ecology from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK (2021). For his thesis, Graham studied the accuracy and precision of low-frequency electrofishing on Flathead Catfish populations. After graduation, he worked as a research fisheries biologist with the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation at the Fisheries Research Laboratory in Norman, OK. He was involved with various warmwater fisheries research projects throughout the state such as quantifying the accuracy of sampling gears for catfishes and identifying bowfishing shoot and release mortality. Graham then moved back to my home state of Ohio where I worked as a Lake Erie fisheries biologist with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources at the Fairport Harbor Fisheries Research Station in Fairport Harbor, OH. Graham's career goal is to continue to conduct research on various fish species and answer relevant questions that can benefit their management/conservation which has led him to pursue his PhD at ¶¶Òõ̽̽.
