Bio

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I am also a member of the Center for Water as a Complex Environmental System (CWACES). After my Ph.D., I worked at Princeton and Duke Universities before joining UIUC in the Fall of 2006. In my research, I use numerical models to study land-atmosphere interactions over regional scales.
