Through the lens of stable isotope geochemistry, organic geochemistry, and paleoclimatology, I decipher the climate stories told by carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen isotopes preserved in geological and archaeological archives. Fossilized charcoals provide further clues, shedding light on past fire activities and the interactions between ancient humans and their environment. My expertise extends to Sr and Nd isotopes, allowing me to trace the origins of sediments and stone tools with precision.

Currently, I am also engaged in research at the Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology in Jena, Germany, where I continue to push the boundaries of archaeology and geoscience. I am also associated to the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry as a guest scientist, enriching my interdisciplinary approach to research.

Recently, I have accepted a visiting professor position at the School of Archaeology, University of the Philippines. In this role, I am excited to share my knowledge and passion with students through an interdisciplinary course titled "Application of Biomarkers and Stable Isotopes in Geology and Archaeology." My goal is to equip future generations of archaeologists with the tools and skills needed to unravel the mysteries of our shared past.

Join me on this journey of discovery as we dig deeper into the fascinating world of geology, archaeology, and human history, uncovering the secrets that lie buried beneath the Earth's surface. Do reach out for any suggestions, ideas and future collaboration on mutual scientific interests!
