I specialize in combining hydrologic modeling and social science methods to better understand how changing land cover and climate affect our water resources. I use that knowledge to support communities and ecosystems facing drought, floods, and other extremes. As a postdoc, I am focused on collaborating to produce actionable research that can be used by practioners.   

I earned a BS in Sustainability Science and a BA in Politics and International Affairs from Furman University. I completed my MS in Natural Resources with a focus on Assessment and Analysis and my PhD in Forestry and Environmental Resources at North Carolina State University. I also have a certificate in GIS. I am passionate about science communication and making research accessible to all. I am always happy to connect, so please feel free to reach out to discuss my research, the graduate school process, or for assistance with hydrologic modeling, particularly SWAT.
