I am a structural geologist and data scientist interested in unravelling the complex systems and processes that shape volcanic and mineral systems. These are highly structured in many ways, unstructured in others, and largely hidden from view. I aim to make geoscience digital, applying data science and computer simulation to capture, synthesize and analyse diverse and multi-scale earth system data. This includes the use of cutting-edge lab, ground and drone-borne hyperspectral sensors to accurately quantify and map geological systems.
