About
I’m a recent graduate from the University of California, Santa Barbara, with a Bachelor’s degree in Statistics & Data Science! My interests are open science and reproducible workflows!
Currently, I work as a data analyst at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS), supporting the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Network synthesis working groups. I help the working groups develop reproducible workflows to wrangle, harmonize, analyze, and visualize ecological datasets. I also host workshops for them.
Before joining the LTER, I was a data curator for NCEAS Arctic Data Center. I created metadata records using Ecological Metadata Language (EML) and archived ecological datasets from research projects focused in the Arctic. Ensuring that the metadata is complete is a crucial part of making the data finable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable by others in the future.
In my spare time, I like to look at and admire birds. My favorite birds include rock doves and mourning doves. Here are some pictures I’ve taken over the years:
