Research Interests
My main research interest is investigating the geological parameters required for carbon sequestration and geologically characterizing offshore basins. I also enjoy studying the sedimentological processes that deposited the basin fill, as well as the structural history altering the deposits through time.

Education & Background
M.S. in Geology, Jackson School of Geosciences, May 2018 (expected graduation)
B.A. in Geology, Colorado College, Graduated 2016
Intern, Clear Fork Inc., Abilene, TX, Summer 2014.

Current Projects
Currently I am working with Dr. Susan Hovorka and Dr. Tip Meckel on a global basin analysis project analyzing the geologic feasibility of offshore carbon storage.
