Research Description

I aim to develop an interdisciplinary approach to aquifer characterization by integrating hydrostratigraphy, depositional history, and hydrogeological data in Southwest Georgia. My research focuses on comparing published and recent pumping test data to refine aquifer properties estimates across complex aquifer systems. By analyzing subsurface connectivity and flow dynamics, I aim to better understand water availability and sustainability in agricultural regions in the Coastal Plain. 

Through the Georgia Flow Incentive Trust (GA-FIT) initiative, I apply spatial interpolation, R-based workflows, and visual storytelling to create accessible hydrogeological models that resonate with a broad range of audiences. Field efforts and archival data synthesis drive my mapping, and time-series data analysis and visual design work ensure scientific clarity and impact. My commitment to collaborative research and science communication guides the way I translate complex findings into actionable insights.
