I am an Atmospheric Scientist working for the Geospatial Computing, Innovations, and Sensing department within the Environmental Science Division at Argonne National Laboratory. 

My career has been marked by extensive field research across the world studying in-situ observations of cloud and precipitation processes, from atmospheric rivers in Seattle to aerosol-cloud interactions within Southern Atlantic marine stratocumulus. Along with the specific research questions associated with each project, my research has focused on the observational limitations and uncertainty associated with in-situ cloud microphysical instrumentation on-board instrumented research aircraft.

Currently, my research is focused on development of the Python ARM Radar Toolkit (Py-ART) and associated radar products in the support of the Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) field experiments, development of the Chicago micro-net in support for the Department of Energy’s Community Research on Climate & Urban Science (CROCUS) Urban Integrated Field Laboratory, and support for the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility MicroPulsed Lidar (MPL) as associate-mentor.
