I'm pursuing a PhD in geochemistry under the supervision of
Roberta Rudnick. I'm broadly interested in molybdenum partitioning and stable isotope fractionation during continental crust formation via igneous processes and destruction via weathering. This work has implications for understanding when oxygen rose in the ancient atmosphere and recycling of crustal material in the mantle.
