about

I am an engineer and glaciologist. In my current research, I develop and apply mathematical models to simulate subglacial hydrology and ice dynamics, primarily with application to the Greenland Ice Sheet and Himalayan glaciers, combined with geophysical field measurements and remote sensing techniques. I work as a Research Scientist and Lecturer at Dartmouth College in the Thayer School of Engineering.  

I hold a BS in civil engineering from Rice University (2009) and a PhD from the University of Colorado (2018) in civil engineering.  I was a postdoctoral fellow at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (2019-2020) and at Dartmouth College (2020-2022). Prior to graduate school, I worked as a water resources engineer at Hydros Consulting in Boulder, Colorado. From 2009-2011, I was a Peace Corps volunteer in a remote indigenous village in the Comarca Ngäbe-Buglé of Panama. If you’re curious about what that world was like, have a look here.

I also practice and study yoga and Jyotish.

I live in Norwich, Vermont with my husband and our three children.
