September 2005 – BSc Geological Sciences, University of Leeds

Sept 2002 – HNC Chemistry, University of Huddersfield

Research interests

I am interested in the application of geochemical proxies coupled with sedimentology to reconstruct environmental changes in the Amundsen Sea. In particular to reconstruct changes in water mass/ocean temperature, and then link these changes to ocean-ice-sheet interaction.
