Research Statement: My research interests include climate science and hydro-climatology broadly, and specifically rainfall and streamflow variability, and extreme precipitation, as well as extreme precipitation utilizing Extreme Value Theory, and understanding societal impacts of hazards I am interested in looking at daily to annual scales as well as inter and intra-variability. I use meteorological station data as well as numerical and probabilistic approaches to study or evaluate potential changes over time and space of these hydrological phenomena.
