I enjoy working on problems relating to understanding earthquakes and faulting, interactions between tectonics and erosion, tectonic deformation, and site response with the goal of improving our ability to respond to and mitigate seismic hazards. In my work I integrate a variety of tools including: seismology, geophysics, geographic information systems, global positioning systems, remote sensing, tectonic geomorphology, field surveying, and computational modeling to evaluate and constrain the kinematic history, tectonic evolution, and active deformation of landscapes for earthquake hazard emergency response and building design. As geophysicist at the USGS, I work on processing and review of waveform data for the National Strong Motion Project (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/monitoring/nsmp/) that support earthquake engineering research, seismic hazard evaluations, and earthquake early warning. We acquire and process strong-motion earthquake data that is used in a variety of engineering applications and seismic research. All data are available at the Center for Engineering Strong Motion Data Center (CESMD) at strongmotioncenter.org. I love interdisciplinary projects, so please contact me if you would like to collaborate!
