Connecticut Institute for Resilience and Climate Adaptation

• Research Technician

  • Jun 2019 - May 2020

  Groton, Connecticut In this job, I conducted original research and supported colleagues’ climate mitigation projects with technical support. As part of my role, I developed geographic data portal enabling local policy makers and stakeholders to conduct risk-based resilience planning and trade-off analyses. Building off of innovative economics research, I created a modular Monte Carlo simulation model to evaluate the cost effectiveness and present value of proposed coastal defense infrastructure projects.

As part of my role, I developed geographic data portal enabling local policy makers and stakeholders to conduct risk-based resilience planning and trade-off analyses. Building off of innovative economics research, I created a modular Monte Carlo simulation model to evaluate the cost effectiveness and present value of proposed coastal defense infrastructure projects. I employed cognitive science principles to make scientific findings more accessible to stakeholders. Finally, as a fun and rewarding side project, I designed a low cost teaching tool that combines historical ideas (a slide rule) and modern technology (parametric design) to give policymakers a physical intuition for the concept of storm frequency shift.

  Raleigh, NC This internship, with a mechanical engineering team designing smart gas meters, gave me a window into engineering practices in commercial companies. Under the supervision of experienced engineers, I built a testbed to evaluate the reliability of a prototype for a innovative magnetic coupling. I also converted old 2D part drawings into 3D models to support Sensus’ Product Lifecycle Management transformation effort.
