Personal profile

Overview

Research Interests:

I am actively involved with terrestrial and extra-terrestrial projects within the field of igneous geochemistry and petrology. My research interests to date have focused on the chemical evolution of differentiated bodies within the solar system, predominantly on the Earth, Moon, and Mars.  In particular, I am interested in how the chemistry of volcanic rocks can provide valuable insights into the geochemical evolution of planetary mantles.
