Brief Information I am interested in exploring the tectono-metamorphic evolution of cratons, with a current focus on high-pressure metamorphic rocks like granulites and their role in the evolution of the continents. My research utilizes techniques such as mineralogy, bulk-rock geochemistry, geochronology, and thermodynamic pseudo-section modeling. I enjoy teaching mineralogy and metamorphic petrology.
