• Integrate environmental, taxonomic, and social data into a geospatial framework to research the fundamentals of aquatic plant ecology and provide real world solutions to problems in invasive species spread prevention.• Maintain geospatial datasets and scripted workflows to efficiently fulfill the GIS and statistical needs of the Institute.Data: NHD, NLCD, SSURGO, WorldClim, Landsat, NOAA, proprietary water quality, weather, and taxonomic data. Software and Languages: ArcGIS, ERDAS Imagine, ADOBE suite, ProgramR, Ruby, HTML, Python.• Produce aesthetically pleasing graphics, maps, and figures for the Institute’s technical reports. • Lead Adirondack Regional Aquatic Response Team in summer months surveying the diversity and distribution of aquatic plants across the Adirondacks of New York State and manage aquatic invasive species using SCUBA. Also survey the aquatic plant diversity of select lakes to fulfill water quality contracts.• Develop web interfaces to display streaming data from our environmental monitoring networks.See: http://regaladoresearch.com/usl.html• Lead collaborator for the Northeastern Aquatic Plant Collaboration. A newly formed data collaboration of lead aquatic plant researchers in northeastern States.

• Lead author on research paper analyzing factors driving aquatic macrophyte species richness in the Adirondack Park. In draft phase.• Lead author on research paper modeling the spatial extent of road runoff impacts in the 6.1 million acre Adirondack Park. Published in the Journal of Environmental Monitoring and Assessment.• Developed a remote sensing study design examining impacts of road salt applications on forests in the Adirondacks using Python, & ERDAS Imagine.• Developed a spatial interaction model that analyzes the spread of aquatic invasive species at the landscape-level using 100,000+ lake stewardship surveys and ProgramR. Presented at North Eastern Association of Environmental Biologists. • Developed of a watershed model predicting salt loads in streams using the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) In draft phase. • Used ArcMap to develop efficient methods to produce multiple Lake Watershed, stream catchment, and road network maps for technical reports and presentations simultaneously. http://www.adkwatershed.org/2013-alap-reportshttp://www.adkwatershed.org/reports/water-quality-reports • Provided solutions to GIS & mapping problems had by associates at the Institute. • Produced and managed large, complex spatial datasets, gaining hands on experience dealing with Scale, Datums, Geographic Coordinate Systems, and process efficiency. • Presented work at multiple professional conferences.

Biology lab instructor 101 (2 courses) & 102 (3 courses); O Chemistry 201 (2 courses) & 202 (1 course.

I was a member of SCUBA team managing aquatic invasive species particularly Eurasian Water Milfoil in lakes in the Adirondack Park, NY during the summer months. We used GPS units to map managed areas as well as to navigate through waterways.http://www.adkwatershed.org/reports/invasive-species-management-reports
