I am a UW Derecho Assistant Professor in the School of Computing and Department of Anthropology at the University of Wyoming. I use computer applications to study how people cope(d) with climate stress in the deep past and present. Although I spend a lot of time in front of a computer dealing with large geo-spatial datasets, writing code, and analyzing remotely sensed data I have also had the opportunity to do fieldwork across the U.S. Southwest and Western Europe. For the last five years, most of my field work has taken place in Mesa Verde National Park.

Growing up in Oklahoma, I became captivated about the physics of severe weather. During my M.Sc., I worked to improve the accuracy of trajectories around a simulated ultra-high-resolution tornadic supercell. As I moved into my Ph.D., I became more fascinated with climate processes, its variability, and anthropogenic forcings; I studied this topic by using many different numerical modeling frameworks (regional climate models, global climate models, and variable-resolution global climate models). This led me to the work I have been engaged with over the past 4 years, creating the most comprehensive set of high-resolution physics based climate projections across the western U.S. through the year 2100.
