About me
I am a postdoctoral researcher interested in exploring the evolution of tectonic, magmatic, and geodynamic processes through a wide range of seismological techniques that image crustal and mantle structure. At regional scales, my work spans a variety of active tectonic settings including terminal-stage subduction zones in the Eastern Mediterranean and continental rifting and plume-driven magmatism along the East African Rift. At more local scales, I apply earthquake detection and location methods to subduction-related volcanic systems (Soufrière Hills, Montserrat) and rift settings (southern Zambia) to characterise their magmatic/fluid plumbing systems and geothermal potential. I also investigate tectonically stable regions that preserve the imprints of tectonic processes which unfolded early in Earth’s history and now host abundant critical mineral deposits (Central African Copper Belt).
