Tracking quartz and zircon provenance in sedimentary rocks using Ti distributions: Unlocking the volcanic-plutonic connection in old igneous systems
Although the relationship between silicic volcanic and plutonic rocks has been extensively studied, it remains controversial whether most plutons have…

I know y’all here for the sass but did you consider also looking at my research? I got volcanoes that do not exist anymore, granites and sedimentary dikes, some cool geochemistry, all in a pretty fun paper (imo).

Kicked off #Goldschmidt2025 yesterday by running a super fun workshop to help students write their first fellowship! It was extremely rewarding to facilitate their discussions and see their first draft come together in a few hours!!

Presented at the Future of Volcanology today at #IAVCEI2025
Despite delays from the previous talks & tech hiccups (while we were all starving!!), I’m so grateful for those who stayed till the end with me.
The feedback and support afterwards truly made it all worth it!

Despite the scorching heat and a touch of sushi-induced food poisoning, #IAVCEI25 has been SO MUCH FUN! Old friends, new friends, tons of cool science, and of course, swimming in Lac Léman 🌊
Also kinda loving when people say they know me from Bluesky/Twitter… pls keep it coming 😁💙

And so summer has began!
I had a wonderful time at the Alaska Aleutian in Anchorage last week. Lots of fun science conversations, great new connections, and amazing sights in and around Anchorage!

Brushing off the cobwebs here! 🕸️👋
Spring flew by in a blur: events at the Smithsonian, talks at UBC, UC Riverside, UMD, & a GSW poster at Carnegie (yes, I’ve been talking a lot).
Now bracing for the summer travel + conference sprint. Excited for science, snacks, and hopefully fewer airport delays!

When Solimões and Rio Negro meet, they become the massive Amazon river. But because of their difference in density, they don’t mix right away.
I don’t think liquid immiscibility can get any more clear than that!

The Smithsonian Mineral Science fellows ;)
This crowd is amazing and I can’t explain how much fun (and snacks lol) we have in the office every day.
Glad to be part of this amazing group of young scientists and grateful for all the super inspiring and funny chats we had the past few months!

⚒️ So I made a feed! It tracks some of the geo-focussed weekly hashtags that have migrated here from Twitter, like #ThinSectionThursday, #FossilFriday and #FridayFold.
Focussing on hashtags where people share pretty and interesting rocks and landscapes. If there are more I should add, let me know!
