I use historical and contemporary statistical and spatial data to parameterize simulation models of forest succession post-1980 on Mount St. Helens. I'm responsible for running simulations and validating model performance as well as assisting with completion and dissemination of scientific products resulting from the project.

Olympia, Washington, United States

I scan and digitize hard copy environmental survey data to produce a queryable dataset for future research needs. I've developed databases for stream, vegetation, and wildlife data from Mount St. Helens and the PNWRS. My computer and organization skills are critical in this work for processing, labeling, and sorting maps and data forms. My communication and time management skills are also particularly useful since the work is entirely remote. I approach this work by aiming to develop databases that might be useful to researchers 100-300 years in the future.
