Profile

I'm an NSERC postdoctoral fellow investigating carbon mineralization and its implications for sequestrating CO2 at mine wastes. My research experience includes both field and laboratory programs that examine biogeochemical processes occurring in natural environments and at mine sites. I'm conducting geochemical modelling and carbonate precipitation experiments for elucidating reaction pathways.
