Assistant Professor

I am an interdisciplinary geologist from Kauai, HI interested in diverse research topics (e.g., How do volcanic rocks cool? Are ocean moons habitable? How do lithium deposits form? How does climate change affect volcanic systems?) I also enjoy trail running, swimming, toddler wrangling, making salsa, etc.

PhD, UC Berkeley; BA, Carleton College [CV]

MS student

I am a graduate student at the University of Kentucky working on an MS. My current research focuses on habitability and fluid flow within fault zones. I also work with middle and high school students teaching earth and space sciences. I am a KY native who enjoys hiking, playing tennis, and reading several fiction genres. 

BA, University of Kentucky

I have opportunities for students at all levels to address fundamental earth science questions. We seek to build a collaborative community directed by student curiosity. Please fill out the informal application and email noahrflagg@uky.edu if the research and community seem like a good fit for your interests.
