Researched the usefulness of precariously balanced rocks as indicators of low seismic risk in the Pajarito Fault System, New Mexico near the Los Alamos National Lab (LANL). Designed an innovative MATLAB code to model the dynamic response of balanced rocks to seismic activity. Performed a failure analysis of the rock formations to assess the probability of large seismic events in the region.Communicated with scientists at LANL, and internationally Was awarded the grant out of a field of 45 applicants Presented findings to the Vermont Governors Institute Composed a proposal & budget.
