Lisa has a broad geological background and more than a decade of experience in geologic mapping, cartography, GIS, volcanology, sedimentology, and teaching & pedagogy. For 10 years, she taught and mentored undergraduate students at Northern Arizona University in GIS, geologic field methods, geologic disasters, and volcanology. Lisa is deeply interested in studying all things related to volcanoes, particularly water/lava/sediment interactions in shallow marine, fluvial, and lacustrine depositional environments. She has 7 years of experience designing and leading international geologic field courses, has worked on several geologic map compilation projects including that for the Petrified Forest National Park and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, and continues to design immersive digital learning environments for instruction in geology.
