Hi! I’m currently a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey, using a variety of mostly airborne geophysical tools to understand more about the rocks under our feet in the U.S., particularly those that might host minerals critical for the coming energy transition. During my PhD at Cornell, I used satellite and ground-based geophysical data to study volcanoes. In the past I have worked for Micro-g LaCoste, analyzing gravity data and helping to test and design gravity meters. I completed my Master’s thesis on geophysics and volcanology at Simon Fraser University. My twin passions are geophysics and volcanology. I am fascinated by volcanoes both in a geological and a human sense. I am mad for geophysics, endlessly curious to find new and better ways to “see” under volcanoes with geophysics. I also love to teach! Nothing gives me more joy than helping people understand the rocks around them.
