Biography
I am passionate about experiencing and understanding the natural world in both my professional and personal life. My research focuses on understanding flooding at the interface of wild and developed landscapes through a paired field and modeling approach. I enjoy challenging myself and connecting with the bio-geo-hydrological systems. I am happiest on the side of a cliff listening to the birds or a river rushing below. My favorite bird is the white throated swift, and my favorite river is the mighty Merced.
