I am a Postdoctoral fellow at the Structure Group at Lakehead University, Thunder Bay, ON, Canada

My main research interest is the relationship between the deformation of rocks and the plate tectonic motions. To analyze these patterns from the micro to the global scale, I use a variety of techniques from structural geology, metamorphic petrology, crystallographic preferred orientation, geophysics (particularly crustal stress data), geochemistry, geo-thermochronology, and provenance analysis. My research is based on field work, lab work, and computer modelling (see "Software").
