My research has been broadly in the areas of sedimentary geochemistry and geobiology, with particular focus on the coevolution of life and environment, climate and its feedbacks on seawater chemistry, as well as behaviors of selected isotope systems. I am also interested in energy sciences and education. I finished my Ph.D. at Northwestern University in 2020 (conferred in 2021) and hold a M.S. degree from Penn State University.
