Research investigates Cretaceous dinosaur faunas, crocodyliform evolution, and vertebrate biomechanics. Current projects examine how geometric conceptions of order mediate relationships between humans, earth systems, and political authority throughout history.
Recent publications (2023-2024) document new pterosaur specimens, analyze crocodyliform evolutionary history in Australasia, and advocate integrated approaches to natural and cultural heritage conservation. Fieldwork has contributed significantly to understanding Australia's unique dinosaur ecosystems.
