Materials under
pressure.
Tools for discovery.

I study the behaviour of materials at the extreme conditions of the Earth's interior, and develop software to make scientific data easier to understand.

From experiments to understanding

A closer look at the inaccessible Earth.

High-pressure and high-temperature experiments help us understand materials deep inside our planet. My work connects these experiments with the analysis tools needed to interpret them.
