Bio

I’m an environmental data scientist and software developer interested in utilizing spatial data and remote sensing to understand our dynamic ecosystems in the face of climate change.

I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Ecology and Evolution from UC Santa Barbara in 2019, where I conducted research focused on mammalian spatial ecology and Costa Rican mariculture systems. In the following years, I served as a wildlife field technician in Southern California and Hawaii. These immersive field roles inspired me to recognize broad ecological patterns across scientific disciplines, leading me to earn a Master’s degree in Environmental Data Science from UC Santa Barbara’s Bren School of Environmental Science & Management in 2022.

I process and visualize pan-Arctic datasets derived from machine learning models and satellite imagery for the Permafrost Discovery Gateway project. I develop open-source software tools to understand how we’re shaping the world around us.
