I am working with Jason Barnes in the Earth Surface Processes Lab, studying the exhumation of the central-eastern portion of the fold-thrust belt of the Spanish Pyrenees using apatite fission track thermochronology.  Currently, I am investigating the use of magnetostratigraphy as an independent constraint on the spatial and temporal patterns of erosion and deposition in the same region.
