About Me

I’m an associate professor at the University of Northern British Columbia, but I’m originally from Hamilton, Ontario. My research is focused on mountains and remote sensing: mountain glaciers, mountain snowpacks, mountain rivers, mountain hazards, and how climate change affects all of these. I’ve been fortunate to work in some incredible mountain ranges, including the Canadian Rockies, the Columbia Mountains, the Southern (and Northern) Coast Mountains, and the Himalayas.

My research group, The Mountain Snow Hydrology Lab, has a website that showcases some of the research being done by the amazing graduate students and colleagues I work with: www.moshlab.org

I play music, run/ski/bike/yoga, and have a 10 year old miniature poodle named Albus who just had 24 teeth removed in a dental surgery.
