I study: fluid flow in faults, granular flow in faults, and catastrophic structural/geochemical events in faults. My teaching and research practices are field-based. I combine my field observations with numerical modeling techniques to better understand how seismic events destroy, deform, and create fault rock. These processes create the rock record of pre-historic earthquakes, drive ore mineralization in fault-hosted deposits, and ultimately control the evolution of orogens and the strength of the lithosphere.
