    "KEY POINTS
    • Basalts and pebbly to cobbly sandstones have been dredged from the Fairway Ridge, Coral Sea
    • Dating of the rocks and interpretation of magnetic anomalies allow mapping of major geological units across North Zealandia
    • This work completes offshore reconnaissance geological mapping of the entire 5 million square km Zealandia continent…”

    [I spent a lot of time living, working and exploring in the PNW – ski bum in Whistler, many dives, offroad motorcycling, engineering geologist, spatial data, cultural + technical + history reading, otherwise exploring, etc – and am fascinated by this area personally and professionally…]

  4. I am beyond thrilled to share that I've accepted the position of Hazards Geologist with the #Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (aka #DOGAMI), based in the #Portland office.

    So excited to join a great team and for the opportunity to continue to grow and learn as a research scientist with a focus on furthering #seismichazard and #geologicmapping programs throughout the state.
