Amanda Jackson
Ph.D. Student in Geological Sciences, admitted Autumn 2022
BioI’ve long been fascinated with volcanoes, and my research interests broadly include igneous petrology, trans-crustal magmatic systems, high temperature geochemistry, and geo/thermochronology. My first PhD project explores the formation of Catalina Island and investigates pluton assembly in continental rift settings. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, camping, backpacking, reading, yoga, and playing with my cat, Carl.

Elizabeth Johnston
Ph.D. Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2017
BioElizabeth (she/her) is a PhD Candidate in Earth System Science at the Doerr School of Sustainability. Her research investigates the coupled human-natural system by quantifying the effects of climate and land use on surface processes, with particular emphasis on cascading disasters. The goal of this work is to inform adaptation efforts that enhance human and ecosystem well-being, while reducing shared socioeconomic outcomes and disparities. Prior to starting her PhD, she earned an MS in Marine Science from the University of San Diego and a BS in Earth and Environmental Science from Furman University. In addition to academic research and teaching experience, she previously served as an Energy Policy Analyst in San Diego, California.

Shaunak Joshi
Ph.D. Student in Energy Resources Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioI am Shaunak, from India. I am starting my PhD in Energy Science and Engineering with Prof. Daniel Tartakovsky and Prof. Hamdi Tchelepi. My research will primarily focus on pore-scale modeling of lithium-based batteries.
Prior to this, I graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay with a Bachelor's and a Master's in Energy Science and Engineering. I love to play all sorts of sports, especially football, badminton, and cricket. You would usually see me running around the campus on odd days. Hit me up if you want to have a chat!
