She sell seashells by the seashore. Mary Anning forever changed the world of paleontology with her discoveries at Lyme Regis in the early 1800’s. Happy international #WomenInScienceDay!

TFW you come up with several really cool ideas for future projects but you've promised yourself to finish the ones you're already working on first...

This past weekend I got to meet the great-great-grandnephew of the man who discovered our beloved Jeff the giant ground sloth 130 years ago. He even showed us the site where it was found. Its pretty awesome how the story of a fossil discovery was passed down through generations.

This past week, I had the chance to study carbonate depositional environments on the island of San Salvador in The Bahamas. We saw everything from eolianites with spectacular paleosols, to fossil reefs, to hyper saline lakes with modern stromatolites. #geology #springbreak2020

Interested in what phytosaurs do with their teeth (ie tooth sockets) between different rostral characteristics and ontogenetic maturities? Come to mine and VT Paleobiology’s poster (B7) in the Colbert Poster Session at #SVP2022! #phytosaurs #triassic

What was Salterella and what can it’s unique morphology teach us about early animal shell evolution? Come found out at my #GSA2023 talk on Sunday at 8:50 in room 304/305.
