I am a Geologist with the state of California. I focus on subsurface geology and groundwater protection.

​

My research at UCSB was in coastal sedimentology, specifically the depositional history of Devereux Slough.

​

All geology fascinates me, but what peaks my interest is sedimentology, hydrology and geologic engineering.
