Employment
Assistant Professor (2023 -)
Purdue University, West Lafayette, U.S.A.
Postdoctoral Scholar (2019 – 2023)
University of Chicago, Chicago, U.S.A.
Postdoctoral scholar in the Department of the Geophysical Sciences, with Prof. Clara Blättler. Work focuses on understanding how sulfur isotopes in carbonate-associated sulfate (CAS) respond to different physical conditions during early marine diagenesis. We will generate a filtered record of CAS sulfur isotopes to trace changes in the Earth’s surface oxidant budget from the Archean to present.
