Research Interests
Structural geology, hydrothermal brecciation processes, economic and industrial mineral exploration, medical and environmental geology and geography, cultural earth science, and climate change.
My research interests stem from work I did both during my dissertation, working in industry and growing up on several Native American reservations.
