I am a Ph.D student in the Department of Geography at Royal Holloway and will complete my degree in December 2005. My current research examines sedimentological
and geomorphic records of palaeoenvironmental change, including reconstructing the extent, dynamics, and timing of Quaternary ice sheets.
I have also worked on several other research projects including
field surveys of high-arctic glaciers (Svalbard) and palaeoenvironmental reconstruction associated with archaeological sites.
writing up my thesis: Quaternary Glaciations of Northwest Norfolk. I'm also assisting on the 2nd year course
GL2930: Geological & Geographical Field Methods.
