I study Volcanology and Igneous Petrology. My primary research interests are explosive volcanic eruptions and igneous petrogenesis in long-lived volcanic provinces.
Current Research Projects
Mechanics of sintering and welding and their timescales in different volcanic regimes
Thermal evolution of the pyroclastic density currents from the Crater Lake culminating eruption
Past Research Projects
Late Pleistocene Glacial Sequence, Petrology, and Geochemistry of Ship Mountain, Siskiyou Mountains, Western Klamath Mountains, Northwestern California
Ignimbrites of the Deschutes Formation: A record of crustal melting and magma mixing
