Guidance for Using NEOWISE Data for NEA Observations
I presented a poster summarazing some "lessons learned" for using NEOWISE data.
Projects
Originally, my intention for this site was to host a blog on politics and policy. However, the realities of grad school quickly set in and I have simply not had the time to update it regularly. Moving forward, my intention is to use this as a spot to post updates about my ongoing projects. I started this process in December 2023 by making a number of posts as part of a "Catch Up Tour" on what I've been up to recently. All the projects posts can be found below. Old blog posts can still be accessed here.
All of the views and opinions outlined on this website are my own. They do not necessarily represent the views of my institutions (including the University of Arizona), funders (including the NSF and NCSL), collaborators, or co-authors.
