Biography

My research focuses on watershed hydrology, groundwater-surface water interactions, and landscape evolution in human-altered and volcanic landscapes. Current projects focus on green infrastructure, stormwater management, and stream restoration. Much of my research is field-based, but my group also makes use of stable isotope analyses, geographic information systems (GIS), and hydrologic modeling. I have expertise in fluvial geomorphology and landscape evolution, which implicitly and explicitly informs my research. For more information, please see my website.
