A drive to better understand the past

My research applications span proteomics, geochemistry, morphological analysis, and more. Tying it all together is a love of biological systems, a drive to improve human understanding of paleoecology, and a desire to inspire others to see the beauty in science.

Proteomics

Proteins are valuable, and often robust biomarkers that can be used to gain insight beyond what morphology allows

Geomicrobiology

Microbial life and their chemical fossils are valuable resources for paleoenvironmental reconstruction

Morphological analysis

Morphological analysis of animal remains is the keystone method of paleontological and zooarchaeological analysis
