Research Statement

My research focuses on reconstructing Late Quaternary environmental change using sedimentological and geochemical proxies to analyze stratigraphic records. This research helps elucidate how Holocene climate variability can modulate extreme storm activity and regional hydroclimate in the North Atlantic Ocean. In particular, I am developing records of coastal flooding and extreme storm activity in Atlantic Canada and The Bahamas. Through this work, I hope to better understand past, present, and future socio-cultural and environmental impacts of coastal flooding and extreme weather events.
