Starting May 2003, I am the manager of the organic geochemistry laboratory in 207/207A Carnegie Science working with Bev Johnson and Rachel Austin.
I received my B.A. in geology from Mount Holyoke College in 1983 and my M.S. in Geological Sciences from the University of Maine in 1991. I am a licensed professional geologist in the State of New Hampshire. I am a member of the Association for Women Geoscientists.
My geological background is very broad. I have worked in secondary education (teaching math and geology in private and public schools), academic research (URI-Graduate School of Oceanography, UMaine’s School of Marine Sciences, and UGA’s Savannah River Ecology Laboratory), heavy industry (Dragon Products, New England’s only cement manufacturer) and geologic consulting. My geological interests are wide ranging from global climate change to sedimentology to mining and minerals exploration to soils. I have worked in New England, Central Savannah River Area, North Central and Western U.S as well as Antarctica.
I come from a long line of dirt diggers including my father (a consulting geologist), my paternal grandfather (an archeologist) and my paternal grandmother’s family who were mining engineers in the Harz Mountains of Germany.
