About

I currently work as a R&D scientist for GoWell International focusing on innovation of well logging instrumentation in Houston, TX. As a part of my Ph.D. at the University of Alabama, I focused on multiple projects surrounding anthropogenic contamination and sedimentation of the Mobile River Basin and Mobile Bay. My research included evaluation of sedimentation accumulation rate models utilizing Pb-210 isotope dating, anthropogenic assessments of contaminated waters and sediments by ash ponds, and hydrologic modeling for flood inundation given hurricane level events in Mobile Bay. I currently an environmental EIT in the state of Texas and plan to continue my professional and academic pursuits in Texas.
