I am a seismology researcher interested in a wide range of Earth physics questions, including continental formation and evolution; geodynamics; the formation and seismic structure of the Earth’s core, mantle, and lithosphere; and earthquake generation mechanisms. I use the latest data processing techniques and geophysical data inversion algorithms to construct images of the Earth at various scales using both earthquake waveforms and ambient seismic noise. I make tomographic models of interesting regions where key issues about continental formation and evolution can be investigated. I obtained my bachelor's degree from the University of Edinburgh and a PhD from Imperial College London, with a focus on using broadband seismology to place constraints on the formation of Laurentia. I am currently a permanent researcher at the National Institute for Earth Physics in Bucharest, Romania, focusing on a range of seismological problems and leading a research project on using ambient seismic noise to image the Earth’s crust and to simulate historical earthquakes.
