I am part of the Solid Earth Processes group at University of Calgary. I'm interested in metamorphic petrology and what it can tell us about broader problems in Earth Science. 

Metamorphic petrology is concerned with: 

(1) the ways in which rocks change in response to variations in depth, temperature and fluid movement in the Earth's crust and mantle, 
(2) the time scales over which these changes occur, and 
(3) the underlying geochemical and tectonic processes that control these changes. 

Metamorphic petrology embraces theory, experiment and field work. 

Some applications of metamorphic petrology include: 

(1) understanding ancient mountain building and other plate tectonic processes, 
(2) deciphering the thermal evolution of the Earth's crust and mantle from 4 billion years ago to the present,
(3) understanding how ore deposits have been formed or modified by metamorphism, and 
(4) providing constraints for geophysical studies of the unexposed crust and mantle. 

Sub-fields of my research in metamorphic petrology include: 

(1) phase equilibria, especially of metapelites (metamorphosed mud-rocks),
(2) geothermometry and geobarometry (estimation of pressure and temperature),
(3) high grade metamorphism and the genesis of granites and granulites,
(4) contact metamorphism around igneous intrusions,
(5) metamorphosed ore deposits, especially partial melting of sulfides
(6) petrological geochronology (genesis of accessory minerals which can be dated), and
(7) carbon/graphite in metamorphism.

In addition to this disciplinary focus, I like to bring my expertise in metamorphism to bear on structural, tectonic and ore-related problems in collaboration with other researchers in the Solid Earth Processes group. 

My research is largely funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).

I'm also faculty supervisor of our electron microprobe lab (UCLEMA). We have a fully loaded JEOL JXA-8200 Superprobe - it's awesome. Dr. Rob Marr is the manager and operator of the facility.
