I am a recent graduate from UNC Charlotte where my research focused on supercell thunderstorms near frontal boundaries. I am currently a teaching assistant for Fundamentals of Meteorology (METR 3140) and Synoptic Meteorology (METR 3245) while completing my PhD in Geography. In the past I have also been a teaching assistant for Introduction to Meteorology (METR 1102), Atmospheric Thermodynamics (METR 3210), Dynamic Meteorology (METR 3250), Weather Forecasting (METR 3330), and Satellite Observations of Earth and the Atmosphere (ESCI 4230). I greatly value teaching and hope to become a professor of meteorology after graduating with my PhD. 

My current research focuses on supercell severe weather near frontal boundaries and the difference in environments for tornado and hail production. My master’s thesis was published earlier this year in the Journal of Operational Meteorology and featured in JOM Volume 14, Number 11 in March 2026 (https://doi.org/10.15191/nwajom.2026.1411). 

Research Interests:
