  PhD researcher focused on understanding coastal sedimentary systems of the Gulf of Mexico. Worked to develop models of sand resource availability on the inner continental shelf for use in coastal resiliency and adaptation projects across the Gulf. Provided new understanding of floodplain topography across the lower Gulf coastal plain using high-resolution lidar datasets. Delivered the first assessment of anthropogenic change in channel evolution of the lower Rio Grande river resulting from 20th century dam construction.
