I am a lecturer in geology specialising in field geology, mineral resources and tectonics. I have a strong interest in geoscience education and geodiversity. My research areas include the New England and Lachlan orogens of eastern Australia as well as Central Asia and Indonesia. I am interested in the tectonic processes responsible for ore deposit formation, particularly ores associated with ophiolites and the potential for CO2 mineral sequestration via carbonatization of serpentinite and ultramafic rocks. I am happy to supervise PhD students in any related topics.
