I am a research professor at the University of Texas at Austin, with appointments at the Bureau of Economic Geology and the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. I am the co-PI (with Jacob Covault) of the Quantitative Clastics Laboratory research consortium. My research interests are in clastic sedimentology, geomorphology, and stratigraphic modeling; I get especially easily distracted by rivers and submarine channels. I am also interested in the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence to geoscience problems. I teach two courses at UT Austin: Python for Geoscience Research and Machine Learning Applications in the Geosciences.
