About Me

I am a geoscientist with a broad interest in extreme weather events and the hazards they pose. I am particularly interested in temporal geostatistics, extreme value analysis, spatiotemporal clustering, time series analysis, and predictive modeling.

Projects

Severe Storm Database

Severe Storm Database Visualization
Severe Storm Database examples of weather events illustrated by maximum exceeded return period.

A novel catalog of space- and time-evolving storms containing extreme precipitation from 2002 to 2025 across the Continental United States (CONUS).

Covariance-Informed Spatiotemporal Clustering

Covariance-Informed Clustering Diagram
Model framework combining space time separable covariance modeling with spatiotemporal clustering.

A novel modeling framework for resampling any geophysical dataset to the resolution of geophysical fluctuation. We demonstrate this method improves event detection.
