Bio

Hi there!


I'm a field geologist with a deep fascination for mountains and tectonic processes. If you're curious about collaborating or working together, I’d be excited to connect—please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Research and Teaching Interests

I am interested in tectonic processes at multiple spatiotemporal scales. My research integrates field observations, geologic mapping, structural geology, low-temperature thermochronology, geochronology, stratigraphy, and geochemistry to understand large-scale dynamic processes at plate boundaries and how the earth deforms. I use multiple analytical techniques - such as U-Pb geochronology, U-Th/He, and fission track thermochronology and geochemical analysis - to constrain processes such as structural and architectural changes in the upper crust, erosion, and basin formation in tectonically active regions, and orogenic magmatism.
