) Professional Memberships/Organizations American Geophysical Union , (2008 - Present) Geological Society of America , (2006 - Present) Biography My research centers on mountain building processes and regional climate change and the associated influences of each on atmospheric dynamics. Specifically, I use stable isotope geochemistry, clumped isotope thermometry, detrital provenance techniques, and climate modeling to study the tectonic, topographic and climatic evolution of orogenic systems as recorded in

flaws around rivets in airplane skins using eddy currents, carbon nanotube conduction and their use in a magnetic tunnel junction. NF3-etched GaAs using XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) in collaboration with Professor Fumio Ohuchi in the Department of Materials Science at the University of Washington. Related the electrical and structural damage in materials – such as silicon and gallium arsenide – to their Raman spectra, which are obtained by laser light scattering measurements. The Raman
