I'm a Ph.D. student at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa studying the petrology of planetary materials. I also like hiking, diving, and skiing!

Mare Domes in Mare Tranquillitatis: Identification, Characterization, and Implications for Their Origin doi.org/10.1029/2021JE… The concentration of volcanic domes in eastern Mare Tranquillitatis implies broad, relatively shallow source regions below this possible impact basin

We might have been late with the first image, but we're early with the follow-up 😉 Here are a few more incredible first impressions from our first #MercuryFlyby - plus annotations to guide the eye! esa.int/Science_Explor… #ExploreFarther

Check out this outreach video created by the master film maker @magmatis , featuring myself! I hope you learn a bit about how volatiles leave volcanic systems! youtube.com/watch?v=W5BHge…

This invited comment was a fun one to write! 🌖 Be sure to also check out the new study by Nelson et al. that prompted it! Tabb °C Prissel, PhD Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

Will Nelson, Julia Hammer and @magmatis investigate in chemical heterogeneities of Apollo sample 76535 and constrain the magmatic cooling history of the lunar Mg-suite to < ~ 20 My, which suggests formation by reactive melt infiltration. go.nature.com/3IVqSfs

NASA's Parker Solar Probe plunged deep into the Sun's corona & passed directly through streamers of solar plasma. The view out the window was...staggering. parkersolarprobe.jhuapl.edu/News-Center/Sh…

An office mate of mine (@VolcanoPadawan)decided my rock hammer needed some personality I guess. Didn't notice until I was on a petrology field trip with students and @magmatis! Anyway enjoy the hilarity!

The truth is, they’ve decided not to get vaccinated and now they’ll come up with any excuse to justify that decision. maggiefox.com/f/sometimes-on…

I'm presenting some of our work researching the behavior of P in olivine using atom probe tomography tomorrow at 10:15 am in 6fT1 at #Goldschmidt2022. Drop by and see some fun spinning figures like this one!

Geochemical results from first 48 hours of Mauna Loa eruption: > glassy near vent > small crystals of plagioclase and olivine at flow front as lava cools > 6-6.8% MgO > eruption temp 1156 C (2113 F) > similar to past lava compositions > no leftover lava from 1984 is apparent
