About

I have experience in diverse geologic studies throughout the southwest US. Most of my experience relates to surficial geologic mapping and geomorphology. I have mapped along the entire San Pedro and Verde Rivers as well as numerous quadrangles in Arizona. I also have experience mapping and assessing geologic hazards such as earth fissures and debris flows. I enjoy exploring geologic phenomena, being immersed in the outdoors, and learning more about the interactions between plants, animals, and the local landscape. I would like to continue expanding my experience with jobs and assignments involving field work and geologic studies.
