I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Earth and Space Science and Engineering at York University (with a graduate appointment in the Earth and Space Science and Physics and Astronomy Departments) and a Participating Scientist on the Mars Science Laboratory Mission, popularly known as the Curiosity Rover. After training on MER in 2004, I contributed to the 2005 Huygens Mission to Saturn's Moon Titan and the 2008 Phoenix Mission to the Martian Arctic. My work has been included in 17 peer-reviewed papers and 28 conference proceedings. I am a collaborator on two NSERC CREATE programs and the chair of the York University Rover Team Advisory Board.
