My research interests focus on non-traditional stable isotope systems, particularly redox sensitive elements. I combine field-based observations with quantitative analytical techniques to understand elemental behavior at a range of scales. My current research centers on non-traditional stable isotopes during subduction, ore formation, and eventual uptake by plants.
My research generally focuses on the interactions between geology, chemistry, and biology in an attempt to understand how geochemical processes may ultimately influence ourselves and the world we interact with. Much of the work I do examines trace metals and heavy metal isotopes to attempt to track these elements through geological and biological processes and unravel the connection between them.
