About Me
My broad science background includes degrees in animal science (BSc), environmental science (MSc), and earth science (PhD). I am a field geologist with interest in the development of coastlines as influenced by Quaternary sea-level fluctuation, oscillations of global climate, and neotectonics. My research experience includes the use of morphostratigraphy, petrography, and carbonate sedimentology. I am proficient in the geochronological method of amino acid racemization and ArcMap. My current focus is on the refinement of the last interglacial sea-level highstand record.
