Personal Statement

I work in rock mechanics with applications to volcanology and geothermal energy, and I am an avid field geologist. I'm a former Leverhulme Early Career Fellow, and now Research Associate working in the Volcanology and Geothermal Research Laboratory at the University of Liverpool.

My areas of research include: the frictional properties of volcanic rocks and magma; explosive-effisive transitions; complex magma rheology; the geomagnetic properties of volcanic fault rocks; fluid-rock interactions; evolution of rock and magma permeability during deformation; the seismic signals of rock failure and slip; porosity-permeability evolution during sintering or deformation; rock and magma fracture and healing etc.
