I am an interdisciplinary Earth scientist and I study how climate change affects our water resources and the human systems that depend on them. I'm particularly interested in the complex relationships between natural water systems and human infrastructure, cities, operations, and resource management—how changes in one affect the other, and how they evolve together over time.

My research group's work uses computer models, data analysis, and artificial intelligence tools to tackle two overarching questions: 
- How do natural systems and human systems respond and adapt to each other, especially under conditions of stress? 
- How can we build better tools to help decision makers plan for water management in an uncertain future?

This work builds on insights from multiple disciplines, such as engineering, hydrology, computer science, decision science, sociology, and others, so we depend on a large interdisciplinary collaboration network to make it happen. Whether we're looking at how a river basin responds to changing precipitation patterns, how cities adapt their water infrastructure during droughts, or how to design more resilient water management systems across different sectors, the goal is always to advance our understanding of how these complex systems evolve and change, in order to help people prepare for and adapt to an uncertain future.
