I began my PhD in January 2021 and focus on reconstructing past ocean chemistry by quantifying the geochemical effects of hydrothermal alteration within the oceanic crust. I am also utilizing machine learning techniques to create an algorithm which auto-classifies igneous lithological features within oceanic drill cores.
