My research aims to refine probabilistic projections of sea level rise in the Gulf of Mexico through improved glacial projections to enable dynamic adaptive planning in coastal communities. Currently, I am evaluating the role of internal climate variability in projections of global glacier mass change to better determine uncertainty ranges in glacier contributions to sea level rise. Outside of research, I enjoy spending as much time as possible doing outdoor activities (biking, running, climbing) and exploring the many neighborhoods in Pittsburgh.
