My research interests lie broadly within past environmental change and (palaeo) volcanism, using research methods in palaeoclimatology, palaeoecology and tephra. My current PhD research aims to understand the interlink between volcanism, palaeoclimate and human ecology within the Main Ethiopian Rift, through analysing cryptotephra and reconstructing regional volcanic history and tephrostratigraphical framework.
