Palaeobiology researcher @es-ucl.bsky.social studying crocodylomorph evolution. Currently looking at osteohistology and growth rates. But first, coffee 🐊☕️. She/her
Had a really great time at @eavpalaeo.bsky.social in Kraków last week with all of team croc/sauropod from @es-ucl.bsky.social 🐊🦕 (as well as many old/new pals). Big thanks to everyone involved in organising!

Our new paper out today describes a sebecoidean crocodylomorph from the Early Palaeocene of Patagonia, and provides support for the survival of a large-bodied terrestrial vertebrate lineage across the K-Pg.

In all the excitement/stress of the day I failed to get any photos with those who have supported me through the last few years. Fortunately, I excel at writing nice things, as evidenced by this comment on my thesis acknowledgements 😬. So, with that said…

My first post on here, so I’d like to share some cool things that have happened recently:

1) Last week I successfully defended my PhD thesis, and am a (pending) croc doc 🐊

2) I now share my name with a caterpillar cake

3) I learnt the importance of never being photographed with a whiteboard
