Another great week at the Climate and Cryosphere Open Science Conference in Wellington. Enjoyed facilitating the Paleoclimate sessions with three other ECRs & got some useful feedback on our work reconstructing oceanographic conditions in the Ross Sea during Pleistocene interglacials 🇦🇶 #NSFFunded

A great week in Wellington at the International Sedimentological Congress where I presented my Miocene record of bottom water changes at ODP Site 1123. I enjoyed learning about all of the research being done using sediments from around Aotearoa and connecting with researchers from NZ and overseas.

I presented our record of ocean and ice sheet history in the Ross Sea at the 2025 West Antarctic Ice Sheet Workshop held in Coupeville, Washington last week. Loved connecting with researchers from different disciplines including glaciology, oceanography, modeling, and paleoclimate #NSFfunded

Also had a wonderful time catching up with my former labmate and friend @karavadman.bsky.social who now works at MGR 💁🏻‍♀️

Got to crack open some beautiful Antarctic drill cores at Oregon State University’s Marine Geology Repository last week. We will using biomarkers to reconstruct past climate and ice sheet conditions during the Pliocene and Pleistocene 🇦🇶🌡️

Really packing in the gymnastics meets this week- tonight was OSU vs Washington and Alaska at Anchorage. Awesome to see two-time Olympian Jade Carey compete in person! #NCAAGym

Front row seat for my first ever MSU and Big 10 meet! Excited to see the Spartans on vault #NCAAGym

Join us tomorrow morning for Day 2 of our session on Southern Ocean and Antarctic paleoclimate #AGU2024 🇦🇶

Fun ocean circulation demonstration in class today! Before it cooled we had a clear bottom water, intermediate water, and surface water 🌊 #oceancirculation #marinescience
