Summary

I'm a PDRA working with Professor Mark Rehkämper to develop new methods for mass-dependent and mass-independent isotope analyses, and to apply these and other established methods to analyse the isotope and geochemical compositions of meteorites and terrestrial samples.

My research interests includes (in no particular order) (i) the formation and evolution of the early Solar System and the terrestrial planets, (ii) the fractionation of volatile elements in meteorite parent bodies and planetisimals, and (iii) the origin of mantle source heterogeneity and associate processes.
