Currently teaching assistant in:

  • Structural Geology and Tectonics (GEOV 104; Introduction to Structural Geology and Tectonics); 
  • Field component of sedimentology (GEOV 107; Introduction to Sedimentology);
  • 3D seismic interpretation (GEOV 372; Integrated Interpretation of Seismic and Geophysical Data)

Part of the PhD project is funded by The Rift Analogues Project (TRAP) that integrate digital outcrop (e.g. DEM and LIDAR) and traditional field methods to investigate sedimentological and structural problems.
