My research interests are to use meteorites and mission-returned samples to study the early evolution of the solar system. I am specifically interested in using and developing radiometric tools to understand the magmatic and impact histories of the Moon. I also use chemical analysis and numerical modeling of iron meteorites to unravel the core-formation processes of asteroids and dynamical evolution of the protoplanetary disk.
