I am currently a postdoctoral research associate at the Gemological Institute of America in New York studying diamond growth deep in earth’s mantle. Previously I studied at earth Science at Columbia University’s Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory. Prior to that background is as a microscopy and computed tomography specialist at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.
