Ph.D. Student

M.S. Soil and Water Sciences, University of California Riverside, 2007

B.S. Geology, minor in Chemistry, Southern Methodist University, 2001

Research Interests

My research interests include sulfur biogeochemical cycling and sediment diagenesis. I emphasize the interaction of the biology and the chemistry throughout my work. My research has focused on both the inorganic sulfur cycle as well as volatile organic sulfur compounds (VOSCs). I am interested in fluxes at the sediment-water interface and processes of the inorganic sulfur cycle as well as air-water exchange of VOSCs.
