Qualifications

• 2016-2020 MGeol (Hons) Geology, University of Plymouth (First Class)

Teaching interests

Acted as a Teaching and Support Assistant on the following modules:

GEOL1005 - Geological maps and Structural Geology

GEOL1008 - Sustainable Geoscience

GGX1205 - Geographical Journeys (Fieldwork)

GEOL2003 - Geospatial Techniques

Other research

My MGeol dissertation involved studying landslide path dependency in the Nepal Himalaya using remote sensing and GIS techniques. This led to me working alongside Sarah Boulton and Josh Jones to study path dependency through multiple resolution landslide inventories, which resulted in publication.
