I am PhD candidate in Earth and Environmental Science at The Graduate Center, CUNY.
I am a PhD candidate in Earth and Environmental Science at The Graduate Center, City University of New York. Since 2015 I joined rock deformation lab at Brown University, Department of Geological Science as a visiting scholar. My research focus is on studying the lower crustal rocks below major seismically active faults, using experiments at high pressure and temperature. The overall contribution of my research is to advance the understanding of earthquakes mechanism and recurrence.
