Profession: Scientist
Professional activities: Planetary exploration. I investigate geochemical processes on planetary surfaces with an emphasis on Mars. Most of my work has relied upon the Mars Odyssey and Mars Exploration Rover missions for data and funds, with synergistic use of other mission datasets, terrestrial analogs, and geochemical models.
