Biography
My primary field areas are in the Precambrian rocks of the Barberton greenstone belt in South Africa, and the Pilbara craton / Hamersley Basin in western Australia; I have also worked on turbidites in the Mesozoic sediments of the Torres del Paine, southern Chile; and the tectonic record of subducting seamounts on the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica
