Recent Publications: Focus on global sea level indicators, U-series dating, and Quaternary interglacial periods. Collaborations span the International Ocean Discovery Program, Antarctic ice sheet modeling, and statistical frameworks for sea level reconstruction.
Scientific Honors:
- MacArthur Fellow
- U.S. Fulbright Scholar
- Fellow of the Geological Society of America
Advising: Current graduate students include Rudy Molinek, Sophia Pinter, and Melissa Reusche. Her lab emphasizes diversity, inclusion, and community engagement through initiatives like GeoReadingForEquity and public science communication.
