About Me

I am currently a visiting lecturer at IUPUI with research interests in the physical properties of terrestrial and extraterrestrial glasses. 

Research Interests

Effusive silicic volcanism

As part of a NSF funded project, I am currently measuring the volatile content, thermal history, and viscosity of natural rhyolite glasses, in order to better understand how these lavas advance. 

Physical properties and thermodynamics

I am also interested in the nature of heat transfer through materials, and the use of thermodynamics to model these properties.
