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
