We study the effects of geologic hazards (e.g., storms, earthquakes, and tsunamis) and other processes on coastlines. You can find us in the field and in the laboratory using a variety of tools to develop a record of relative sea-level change through time. To learn more, please check out the research page.
I am actively looking for MS students to join the group! Please contact me with your CV to discuss project ideas.
