Exploring the Intersection of Science, Data, and the Environment

As a scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, I specialize in tracking wildfires in near real time. My research dives deep into how fire reshapes landscapes, and how those changes affect ecosystems, communities, and the planet.

It’s deep into this work that I’ve developed a passion for working with data to solve real world problems, often where human lives could be on the line.

Within this site, you’ll find insights into my professional journey, my work, and the projects that drive me to create meaningful solutions in a rapidly changing world.
