A volatile atmosphere needs a critical eye. My path into the field of meteorology has challenged me to read between the lines of the atmosphere to identify threats to life and property. Whether forecasting a heatwave in the Midwest, analyzing the root cause of a shipping disaster, or quantifying hail size from radar observations, I have built a skill set for identifying where and how atmospheric threats may strike.Working as a forensic meteorologist at HailTrace, I have the opportunity to diagnose severe weather hazards nationwide. When clients need an estimate of damage from severe hazards, I am able to provide an expert analysis of meteorological conditions to inform their decisions. The analysis I provide in my day-to-day work not only helps rebuilding efforts after hazards strike but also aids individuals personally affected as they recover from losses.My background in atmospheric science began at the University of Oklahoma, from which I received my bachelor's degree in meteorology in 2023. While at OU, I established my skills in data analysis, especially in the field of hydrometeorology. Partaking in a research project on rainfall climatology and studying the Standardized Evaporative Stress Ratio for my capstone project, I fostered an interest in understanding weather-induced losses.In my position at HailTrace, I continue to cultivate that interest by partnering with stakeholders in the weather industry, helping them understand losses in the context of severe weather. I am excited to continue applying my skills to a variable atmosphere, in order to help individuals and businesses respond to weather hazards of all kinds.
