I study how the Earth's surface changes over recent and geological timescales. I like to research questions like:

• What causes landscapes to uplift and why?

• How does glacial retreat change erosional processes?

• Can we accurately trace the source of sediments?

• Can we create new and exciting ways of studying rocks and their minerals?

I do this with a wide range of tools such as:

• Low-temperature thermochronology

• Geochronology

• Apatite geochemistry

• Drone photogrammetry and Lidar

• Landscape evolution modeling

• Cosmogenic Nuclide Dating
