I am an atmospheric and physical climate scientist interested in the role of tropical
convection and clouds in
Earth's climate and climate change. I am a postdoc at the Program for Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at
Princeton University. I recently completed my PhD in the Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science at the
University of Washington in Seattle.
Updates
March 2026.Our AGU Advances paper on tropical hydrologic change was featured as an Editor's Highlight in Eos.
Feb 2026. My paper "No 'wet gets wetter' in kilometer-scale mock-Walker circulations", co-authored with Tim Merlis and Stephan Fueglistaler, is out in AGU Advances.
Dec 2025. Another AGU in the books--I talked about patterns of tropical precipitation change in what turned out to be a great convection session.
July 2025. Had a great time at my first Gordon Research Conference on Radiation & Climate. Lots of cool talks on aerosol-cloud interactions and 3D radiative transfer!
May 2025. My paper "Internal Ocean‐Atmosphere Variability in Kilometer‐Scale Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium" is out in JAMES. It was fun working with Vlad Munteanu, Peter Blossey, and Dennis Hartmann to decipher these unique RCE simulations.
