I am currently an Assistant Professor at the Department of Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College London. My research interests include coastal hydrology, submarine groundwater discharge, and emerging contaminants. I am particularly interested in combining field-based geochemical techniques and machine learning to study human impact on aquatic environments.
I completed my PhD in Geology & Geophysics at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researching the intersection of coastal hydrology, groundwater contamination, and sea-level rise using geochemical tracers.
At the University of Hawaiʻi, I was also actively involved with the Hawaiʻi Data Science Institute and the Hawaiʻi EPSCoR ʻIke Wai project conducting research combining deep learning, sensor development, and field-based submarine groundwater discharge data to learn more about its drivers, sources of uncertainty, and possibility of upscaling local-scale measurements.
