Research Summary

My research focuses on investigating the depositional records at different scales, from outcrop examinations to nanoscopic techniques, to understand the origin and evolution of life on the Earth throughout geologic time.

As part of the Precambrian Research Group, I am currently working on the Early Archean accretionary siliceous features as possible abiotic biosignatures of early life.
