I am a broadly trained Physical Geographer with interests in fluvial geomorphology, and field applications of geospatial technologies. My research primarily focuses on interactions between riparian zones and stream channels and has investigated 1) the storage, transport, and geomorphic effects of wood in river channels; 2) the geomorphology of Andean páramo streams, 3) the geomorphic impacts of dam removal on southern Appalachian river systems, and 4) the fate of contaminated fluvial sediments in historic mining (Pb, Au) regions. My research has occurred across a wide range of river system types from blackwater rivers of the coastal plain, to the calm rivers of the North Carolina Piedmont, to the steep head water streams of the Southern Appalachians, to the crystal clear, swift-flowing rivers of the Missouri and Arkansas Ozarks, and to the headwaters of the Amazon River in the tropical Andes.
