    Research interests

    I am a snow scientist, and my research focuses primarily on snow as a hazard. I am interested in snow across a range of spatial and temporal scales. Most of my work has a strong process based, observational, field component. I am also interested in the intersection between people and hazards - specifically decision making, terrain use, risk and uncertainty.
