Research interests:
I am a seismologist interested in a wide array of problems in different tectonic settings, including volcanoes, oceanic hotspots, mid-ocean ridges,
intracontinental collisional belts, and cratons. I have field experience both as a sea-going marine scientist collecting seismic, bathymetry, and
gravity data in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and as a land seismologist studying regional upper mantle structure at Iceland and Hawaii. I have also done computational biology research in genomics and epidemiology and conducted
research and written on the status of women geoscience faculty.
