Throughout my postgraduate studies I've had the amazing opportunity to research early life sites in the Pilbara of Western Australia, including the well-preserved stromatolitic outcrops of the Turee Creek Group and Duck Creek Dolomite, as well as the Tumbiana Formation, Strelley Pool Formation and the Schopf, Trendall and Buick Localities. I've also visited fossiliferous outcrops in South Africa and Japan. In New Zealand, I've hiked in to see the Cretaceous-Paleogene "K-T" boundary in Mead Stream on the South Island, as well as visited a number of active hot springs sites in Rotorua on the North Island.
