Research Interests

With my husband Tim, I am working on a long-term project mapping several quadrangles in the Precambrian core of the Black Hills.  We collaborated with geologists from the National Park Service, the South Dakota Geological Survey, and the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology on a geologic map of Wind Cave National Park.
