Beaudoin holds a B.A. in Geology from the University of California at Berkeley and a Ph.D. in Geological Sciences from the Jackson School of Geosciences at the University of Texas at Austin. As a graduate student, Grace used geochemical techniques to study metamorphic processes at tectonic margins as part of an NSF PIRE (Partnerships for International Research and Education) project.
