Greetings from Albany! I am a Master's Student in the Atmospheric Science program. My research, conducted under the advisement of Dr. John Molinari, is focused on the formation and evolution of monsoon gyres and their role in tropical cyclongenesis in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
I received my bachelor's degree in atmospheric science from Cornell University, where I completed a senior thesis examining the effects of lake surface ice coverage and thickness on lake effect snowband development over the eastern Great Lakes (which also happens to be the region in which I grew up).
