Excited to announce that I’m defending my dissertation on May 30th at 10 am PST and it will have a virtual component! For anyone interested in hearing me spread the good word of remote sensing and statistical analysis over volcanoes, let me know and I can share the zoom! 🌋🛰️✨
InSAR and volcano shenanigans with me and @Jmglez_95 for #AGU2023 @ 2:10 today (Thursday) in eLightning Pod 5, come by to see some cool geodesy data on hot volcs 🌋🛰️✨
Ya girl’s got a poster this afternoon (Wednesday) at #AGU23 come by if you want to say hi and learn about drastically methods over volcanic fields 🌋🌋🌋

So proud of you, was wonderful to watch you defend and see all of your hard work pay off 🥳 You have always been a mentor and inspiration to me and I can’t wait to see your next adventures unfold, congratulations! 🎉
Excited to have successfully defended my PhD last week! So grateful to my advisor, committee, collaborators, friends and family for tuning in and being so supportive throughout this process! #PhDone 🎓
Every time I volunteer with Science Olympiad the high schoolers I proctor are so amazing and leave these notes on their exams and it’s just so refreshing and wholesome 🥹
I taught students the Mogi model derivation today and learned that live derivations are both very fun for student interaction and very terrifying for fear of suddenly forgetting calculus midway. Needless to say my physics heart is happy and my arm is exhausted from writing!

I'm recruiting paid interns to work on @OpenTopography this summer. Focus is broadly geospatial data science. Lots of potential projects related to #lidar point cloud & raster data access, processing & viz; machine learning; outreach / education. Due Mar 1 opentopography.org/news/open…
🚨OpenTopography Data Science student internship opportunities!🚨 Summer 2023. 11 weeks paid. Work closely with the OT team on workflows & services for processing, analysis, and/or visualization of point cloud (#lidar) & raster topographic data. More info: opentopography.org/news/open…

Post conference field work studying gravity and momentum while riding in a giant plastic ball. First test shows positive results for maximum fun but more samples are needed for analysis, will have to return to the field site. Suggest all my colleagues also run tests here 🥳
I forgot what blue sky looked like 🤩☀️Glad to have this little reprieve from the rain on the last day of #IAVCEI2023

Had so much fun presenting my poster this first day of #IAVCEI2023, can’t wait to see what the rest of the week has in store 🌋🌋🌋
Somewhere between San Francisco and Auckland my poster tube lost its lid (a minor inconvenience compared to others’ travel issues), but it’s been a fun challenge keeping my poster dry while getting down from Auckland to Rotorua for #IAVCEI2023
If you’d like to see the fruits of my labor, it will be up during Monday’s poster session as poster #37. Come stop by to learn about my work measuring subsidence at Medicine Lake Volcano using InSAR with some preliminary MCMC modeling on the side! 🥳🌋🛰️
