Research interests

My research interests lie in the fields of economic geology and Hydrothermal processes. I’m interested in using various tools to better understand the formation, evolution, and distribution of mineral resources, with a particular focus on precious and critical minerals like REEs. What excites me the most is how geochemical and mineralogical processes cause metals to accumulate in the crust of the Earth by conducting theoretical, experimental, and software studies.
