I am a Scientist in the Whitman lab who recently completed my PhD at Purdue University, where I worked with the Filley group in the Purdue Stable Isotope lab. After receiving my undergraduate degree in Microbiology at Michigan State University, I became interested in stable isotope and soil science while studying the impacts of surface chemistry on the degradation of carbon nanomaterials in soils. In my free time I enjoy hiking, reading, and tinkering with machines.
