I am a Post-Doctoral Researcher with the statistical sciences and geophysics groups at Los Alamos National Lab working on methods for improved nuclear detonation detection. My objective after finishing my Post-Doc assignment is to find a research position that allows for a good mix of opportunities to continue applying statistical methods to problems utilizing real data, collaborate with a group of outstanding peers, share what I have learned, and has great access to the outdoors for daily hikes with my dog, backpacking, and skiing.
