My background includes an undergraduate degree in Geomatics from the University of Ottawa, and graduate work in Glaciology and Remote Sensing also from the University of Ottawa. I was a Research Associate at Wilfrid Laurier University in Snow Hydrology in the Western Arctic from 2014 to 2016 where we were interested in snow – vegetation hydrological interactions in a warming climate. From 2016-2017, I worked with WCS Canada where I worked with wildlife biologists mapping snow and ice conditions for habitat monitoring. I was a Field Researcher with McMaster University based fulltime in Whitehorse from 2017 to 2023 where I maintained meteorological and hydrometric instrumentation at the Wolf Creek Research Basin and pursued Snow Hydrology research documenting snow processes and changes due to a warming climate.
My current research interests are wide ranging in cold regions hydrology. Currently, I’m interested in better understanding winter flows, snowpack variability (mass and energetics) across landscapes, and hydrological related hazards (flooding, avalanches, erosion, and aufeis).
