Expertise

Areas of Expertise:

  • meteorites
  • asteroids
  • solar system
  • minerals
  • rocks

My research focuses on understanding the evolution of small planetary bodies, primarily primitive (unmelted) asteroids. Specifically, I study the thermal evolution of these objects to better understand the conditions under which our solar system formed.

Research Interests:

  • Asteroid Spectroscopy
  • Metamorphism of chondrite parent bodies
