I am currently an Assistant Scientist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

Prior to WHOI, I was a T.C. Chamberlin and NSF EAR postdoctoral fellow at the University of Chicago, where I chiefly collaborate with Clara Blättler. In 2022 I received a PhD in Geochemistry from Caltech for research conducted with Jess Adkins and Woodward Fischer. During graduate school I was supported by the Hertz Fellowship and the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship. I graduated from Princeton University in 2015 with a degree in Geosciences.

Outside of research, I play with my retired racing greyhound, named Tethys. I enjoy reading popular science books, typically about earth history and the history of earth science, and I wrote the wikipedia article on the reference materials used in stable isotope analysis.
