Research Interests:

I am an Earth Scientist with special interest in stable isotope geochemistry. I like to approach scientific questions using a combination of different methods and geochemical proxies. During my education and early career I found interest in:

  • Mass spectrometry and laser ablation
  • Low temperature stable isotope geochemistry
  • Low temperature thermochronology
  • Silica diagenesis and silicification
  • The Precambrian-Cambrian boundary
  • Sediment provenance
