I am a interested in what the Earth looked like millions of years ago, including the past configurations of the continents and oceans, and the structure of deep convecting interior. To do this I build digital Earth models that piece together information from geology, geophysics and geochemistry. The timescales involved in these models covers "deep time" i.e. from present-day to hundreds of millions of years in the past.  These models allows us better understand processes including climate, volcanism, and the development of minerals.

I received my PhD from the University of Sydney (EarthByte Group) and then moved to Norway. I have worked as a postdoc and researcher at two Norwegian Centres of Excellence - the Centre for Earth Evolution and Dynamics (CEED; 2013-2023) and the Centre for Planetary Habitability (PHAB; 2023-2033).

I am currently funded on a Young Researcher Talent Grant from the Norwegian Research Council for my project "POLARIS - Evolution of the Arctic in deep time." I am concurrently an Honorary Senior Lecturer at RSES (2023-current) hosted within the Geophysics-Geodynamics groups.

In 2026 I will commence a my Australian Research Council Future Fellowship with a project titled "AUSTRALIS - Deep time evolution of mineral systems in the Tasmanides."
