Research Focus

I am a PhD researcher, with a primary focus on utilizing non-invasive geo-electrical signals as a tool to better characterize and quantify microbial abundance and activity in subsurface porous media. Through my research I aim to have a better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning the spectral induced polarization (SIP) responses driven by microbial activity.

Interested in exploring environmental sciences, microbial sciences, SIP, geosciences.
