Document:
I am a field geologist interested in tectonic reconstructions of dominantly volcanic and sedimentary terrains, using lab techniques such as geochronology, geochemistry, petrography, and paleomagnetics. I publish in a wide array of journal types, on a broad spectrum of topics, including subaerial to deepwater volcanology, sedimentology of active margins, economic geology, tectonophysics, structural geology, petroleum geology, geochronology and geochemistry. I put my students first on most papers, except for some of those that feature my most important ideas.
