Staff profiles
Dr Lisa Baldini
Lecturer in environmental science
I studied geology and worked for the US Government developing environmental technologies for
the US army. I did a master's in
palaeoecology, studying land snails
in the Bahamas to reconstruct past
environmental change. I did a PhD
in Ireland in palaeoclimatology,
researching the geochemistry of
stalagmites to reconstruct past
climate. I am generally interested
in using geochemistry to trace
human-environmental interactions
through time.
Dr Danny McNally
Lecturer in human geography
I studied human geography as
an undergraduate at university
because I was fascinated by its
unique and critical approach to
contemporary issues and topics
than spanned across culture,
politics, people, and places.
My master's and PhD scholarship
focused on cultural geography,
specifically on the relationship
between geography and art
practice. I have also worked in
urban planning policy for various
local authorities in London.
Dr Jens Holtvoeth
Lecturer in geology
I loved studying geology as it influences virtually every process on the Earth's surface, including the rise and fall of societies. You study our planet up close, whilst enjoying the great outdoors. After a year in environmental consultancy, I did a PhD on paleoclimate and the carbon cycle. My main research interests are in palaeoenvironmental science, particularly the impact of past climate changes on ecosystems and societies.
