I am a cloud architect who works to make back-end processes as effective and efficient as possible to support Woodwell Climate scientists in their research and policy impacts. I strive to be a resource for scientists and policymakers— scaling and simplifying processes in the cloud, creating scripts to automate data-intensive jobs, and maintaining technical workflows.
I believe that a diverse set of skills are necessary to improve humanity’s understanding of climate change and I am excited to contribute my expertise in statistical programming languages, databases, data processing, product management, and technical writing. I hold a bachelor’s degree in data analytics from Ohio State University. In my previous position, I developed a new financial technology product that provides machine-readable portions of public filings to make Natural Language Processing against the dataset easier for users. The product is now patent pending.
I grew up within walking distance from the Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Northeast Ohio. My experiences there taught me about the fragility of the natural world, human impact on the environment, and how preserving the natural world benefits both individuals and society. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking new recipes, hiking, reading, and intramural sports.
