Research Overview
My research seeks to understand processes that affect tropical cyclone intensity, such as ventilation: the injection of cool, dry environmental air into sheared storms. A combination of observations from aerial reconnaissance and satellites, along with simulations from operational models, are used to examine these processes.
I participated in NASA's CPEX-CV field project and the Naval Research Enterprise Intern Program. I am also a Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology (FINESST) fellow.
