Bio

I am an associate professor at Colorado School of Mines jointly appointed in geophysics and applied math and statistics 60/40%. At Mines I am part of two industry-aligned consortia: Center for Wave Phenomena and Center to Advance the Science of Exploration to Reclamation in Mining . I earned my PhD from the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering at Stanford in 2018, where I was a member of the Stanford Exploration Project group and an affiliate in the geophysics department at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. I hold an MS in geophysics from Stanford, and a BS with a double-major in math and computational physics from UT-Austin. I have earned an NSF CAREER grant, the SIAM Activity Group on Geosciences Early Career Prize, the SEG J. Clarence Karcher Award, and a Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineering (PECASE).
