I am an educator and interdisciplinary field geologist interested in the structural and thermal behavior of Earth's crust. My research has focused mostly on the tectonic evolution of cordilleran orogenic systems along the western margin of the Americas. Currently a postdoctoral fellow at Utah State University working on various field-based projects related to regional tectonics and earthquake geology in SE Anatolia. I'm curious about all aspects of the Earth system and particularly driven to understand how it operates as an interconnected set of processes.

I'm passionate about communicating geosciences, creating online outreach focusing on geo + planetary science research and guidance for academic success. This website contains links to various outreach projects. Thanks for droppin by.
