Welcome

My teaching and research interests are centered in the field of biogeochemistry; a multidisciplinary approach focused at understanding the chemical, physical, geological and biological processes that govern the composition of the Earth’s environment. As a chemist, I mostly employ chemical techniques to address questions in this area. In particular, I am interested in understanding the sources, sinks and cycling of organic carbon in marine sediments.
