I am a Post Doctoral Researcher interested in ice core science and atmospheric chemistry. My work at BAS includes development of analytical methodology (ICP-OES and ICP-MS), data analysis, and participating in continuous flow analysis (CFA) campaigns. Before starting my position at BAS, I completed my PhD at The University of Cambridge, focusing on the development and application of a novel UHPLC-MS method to detect and quantify biogenic terrestrial organic aeorosol markers from within ice cores. Alongside my own research, I support a PhD student within the ice core group here at BAS.
