I am involved in some public outreach through the UMPC and with local high schools and some Missoula organizations. My hobbies include hiking, skiing and outdoors as well as playing guitar. Learn more about me from a 2014 interview with the Eerie Digest.

My published work consist of books, book chapters, papers and abstracts (most published with students. My topics range from Cambrian soft-bodied cnidarian fossils, tectonic displaced terranes in the American Cordillera and study of the paleogeographic distribution and evolution of corals and reefs. Most recently, I am doing research on early Mesozoic coral reefs to resolve the dynamics of the mass extinction at the end of the Triassic period with emphasis on the earliest Jurassic recovery among corals and reefs. A former doctoral student of mine, Montana Hodges, is collaborating with me on this topic, collecting fossils and dating the rocks with detrital zircon. Hodges and Stanley’s research reveals that coral and coral reefs were hard-hit by massive global climate change about 200 million years ago, causing them to collapse suddenly. It took them 10s of millions of to recover and the study relates directly to global climate changes underway today which are undermining marine ecosystems, especially corals and reefs.
Foreign Languages: German (Goethe Institute Level-4 Certificate), Spanish, reading knowledge of French; editorial experience.
I have taught paleontology courses at graduate and undergraduate levels for much of my career. I have been a teaching faculty in the Davidson Honors College at the University of Montana where I taught several "Honors Courses". I also was a lecturer at the University of California, Davis and taught part-time courses in historical geology at the university/college level in the Washington, D.C. area.
