Bio
I am a climate scientist with interests in both atmospheric science and physical oceanography applications in studying climate. I joined the MEAS department as an assistant professor in fall 2018. Please visit my lab webpage.
Research Description
My research interests include tropical and extra-tropical climate variability, air-sea coupled processes, and climate prediction and predictability on seasonal to multi-decadal timescales. I work with earth system models to pick apart the fundamental drivers of climate and specialize in developing novel modeling methodologies to confront my hypotheses. Specifically, my current research aims to understand how variations in large-scale atmospheric circulation and weather 1) impact how well we can predict El Nino and La Nina events, 2) drive sea surface temperature variability, and 3) generate variability in the large-scale ocean circulation.
