Education

• A.B. in Geosciences, Princeton University, 2023

Research experience

• Postbac Research Scientist, Ecoclimate Lab | University of Washington | Sep 2023 - Present
  • Running and analyzing simulations with the Community Earth System Model (CESM) to examine how water vapor pressure deficit impacts vegetation-climate interactions and how the hydrologic response to land driven warming differs from radiative driven warming.
  • Advisor: Professor Abigail Swann
• Senior Thesis, Vecchi Group | Princeton University | Sep 2022 - May 2023
  • Investigated tropical precipitation change using a variety of Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) metrics and quantified interhemispheric energy imbalances across 13 CMPI6 models.
  • Designed and ran experiments with the GFDL-AM2.5 climate model to further examine the tropical precipitation response globally and regionally in Africa.
  • Advisor: Professor Gabriel Vecchi
• Research Internship, Ecoclimate Lab | University of Washington | June 2022 - August 2022
  • Explored the contribution of the plant physiological response to Arctic amplification and heat transport across multiple CMIP6 models.
  • Advisors: Professor Abigail Swann, Professor Kyle Armour
• Research Internship | Princeton University & NOAA GFDL | June 2021 - August 2021
  • Quantified the seasonal-to-decadal predictability of phytoplankton blooms using a suite of perfect model experiments with the GFDL-ESM2M climate model.
  • Developed a mechanistic explanation for the progression of predictability from sea ice to biogeochemical fields in the Southern Ocean.
  • Principal author of paper accepted to Geophysical Research Letters.
  • Advisors: Dr. Mitch Bushuk, Dr. Graeme MacGilchrist, Dr. Alex Haumann
• Junior Project, Resplandy Group | Princeton University | Sep 2021 - Dec 2021
  • Examined how the “wet-get-wetter, dry-get-drier” paradigm affects sub-surface dissolved oxygen through surface salinity-driven circulation changes using the GFDL-ESM2M climate model.
  • Advisor: Professor Laure Resplandy
