Biography

I am an oceanographer and earth-system scientist interested in an interdisciplinary approach to understanding aquatic-climate connections in both my teaching and scholarship at Oberlin College. 

My research explores the physical and biological drivers of biogeochemical cycles in the Polar and Sub-polar Oceans with a focus on the use of dissolved gas tracers, remote sensing, and computational analysis. New work will investigate the role of ice in shaping carbon, oxygen and nutrient cycling in the Great Lakes.

Although Winter Term 2020 is complete there are still so many photogenic and inspiring moments to share. In this photo series, we visit Lake Erie; Hall Annex 100 for a theater workshop with director Joey Rizzolo; Peters Hall for an elementary Russian class; the Ninde Scholars at Oberlin High School; and a chance to sport a terrific pair of 3D-printed snow glasses.
