The Dynamic Interaction of Mantle Compositional Heterogeneities at the Surface and the Core-Mantle Boundary

University of Toronto

My thesis work has prepared me for all aspects of geodynamic modelling, from designing numerical experiments to building code. I primarily worked in mantle dynamics, but I also gained experience in seismology, atmospheric dynamics, and aerodynamics. I developed skills in computational fluid dynamics, programming, and scientific writing.

University of Saskatchewan

Postdoctoral Fellow

I am currently developing a clothing simulator app as part of a Mitacs Accelerate internship. In addition, I have been exploring new time-stepping schemes in the hydrology code SUMMA. I am also working on a custom-built mantle convection code in Fortran used to model multiple chemical components and non-Newtonian surface rheologies. I am also working with Comsol Multiphysics to model other geophysical continua.
