Profile

My current research is focused on climatology and wind energy. Corporate and private stakeholders rely on climate models in order to predict wind so I am interested in how well various models capture low-level current trends over both interannual and diurnal timescales.

Why did you choose Boston College for your postgraduate work?

I graduated from Boston College as an undergraduate and really loved the department. With the addition of the Schiller Institute for Integrated Science and Society, I saw lots of new opportunities to do good research.
