Supervisor


My PhD Research is focused on constraining the timing and amplitude of Marine Isotope Stage 5a deposits across the Western Atlantic Ocean.

My primary interests include carbonate facies mapping, sedimentology, paleo-sea level reconstruction, stratigraphy, and STEM outreach.

I am an English as a Second Language (ESL) and first generation PhD student from San Antonio, Texas.
In my spare time, I enjoy bouldering, canoeing, scuba diving, and trying new food.
