About Me

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Geological Science at the California State University - San Bernardino.  My research focuses on evaluating temporal and spatial patterns of strain by integrating structural analysis with geochronology and low-temperature thermochronology. I am particularly interested in understanding the time-scales, progression, and drivers of deformation and landscape evolution. Current project center on active faults in southern California, Late Cretaceous to Pliocene tectonics of the Great Basin, and source-to-sink systems in China.

Outside of Work

In addition to doing geology and teaching / advising undergraduate through postdoctoral students, I am also a mom to three beautiful kids.  My 12-year-old daughter and twin, 9-year-old sons keep me very, very busy. When I do manage to get a little free time, I enjoy traveling, gardening, and cooking.
