Manager responsible for the operation and data processing of the Kansas University Ameriflux Sensor Network under PI Dr. Nate Brunsell. The network is a designed and operated using high frequency (10 hertz) meteorological sensors measuring ecosystem carbon, water, and energy fluxes across Eastern Kansas. My day to day demands includes collecting an and processing of each locations large data output (4.5M every two weeks) into usable outputs that are then published for a global collection of investigators and modelers working together to generate a better understanding of terrestrial ecosystems in a changing world.

I am tasked with growing the Vizonomy brand in its current format while identifying and developing opportunities to expand on the company foundation that climate risk and adaptation planning should be driven through industry defined values, impacting data and actionable analytics. These solutions are a step in addressing the estimated $428M loss in the European GDP as a result of daily weather variability brought on by climate change. This value, similar to that suffered in the US and across the Globe, are only expected to increase in the future. The time is now to start on efforts to reduce these losses and begin to established a stable global economy to improve the overall way of life.
