Greater Denver Area

Currently maintaining and improving the CBAM-Hydro model operationally on the cloud for various clients across the world. Work includes developing modeling pipelines to ensure high SLA in addition to model calibration and evaluation using both traditional hydrologic calibration methods and machine learning tools. Other work includes evaluating publicly.

Boulder, Colorado

Investigating hydrometeorological processes through the community WRF-Hydro modeling framework developed at NCAR. Work is being done in support of research to operations for the National Water Center in Tuscaloosa, AL. Specific research tasks include investigating land surface model behavior with regards to snow, model sensitivity analysis both at the land.

Chanhassen, MN

Currently researching application of Land Information Systems (LIS) developed by NASA to simulation of vital surface hydrologic components over Alaska, North America, and Asia. Specifically, I am aiding in the development of operational land surface modeling over North America to provide snow, soil and water states at 1 km resolution. The two main models I.

Department Of Geological And Atmospheric Sciences, Iowa State University

As a graduate student, I performed research on using fractional snow cover information retrieved from the Moderate Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite to calibrate key parameters in the operational SNOW17 model. The SNOW17 model is a temperature index snow model that simulates the buildup and ablation of snow over a watershed. Calibrations were.
