1 ROCIO P. CABALLERO-GILL Ph. D. CANDIDATE- BROWN UNIVERSITY 6102 Ozack Court Phone: Dale City, VA EDUCATION 2014 Ph. D. Geology (anticipated 11/2014) Brown University 2010 M. Sc. Geology Brown University 2007 B.A. Geology, Spanish minor George Mason University RESEARCH INTERESTS My research to date has focused on using deep ocean sediment geochemistry and foraminifera micropaleontology to investigate paleoclimatic, paleoecologic, and paleoceanographic change. In the future, I would like to use my abilities to generate records of and interpret climate variability in the terrestrial realm.
