BIO
I am a Postgraduate Researcher in the Earth Science and Engineering Department looking at marine invertebrates, specifically soft tissue preservation in brachiopods from the Herefordshire Lagerstätte. I use virtual palaeontological techniques (mainly the SPIERS software suite) to reconstruct organisms from a variety of datasets (mostly serial grinding or phase-contrast synchrotron tomography).
I completed my MSci degree at Imperial College London in 2024, with an MSci thesis titled 'Disparity in Hind Limb Proportions of Fossil Anurans and Palaeoecological Implications'.
