I am a MSc student under the supervision of Dr. Koreen Millard. My passion lies at the intersection of statistics and remote sensing. My research will explore the use of unsupervised machine learning and functional data analysis of synthetic aperture radar, for the purpose of better characterising salt marsh extent and the intertidal zone. This work is geared towards the creation of improved extent maps for blue carbon inventories.

I previously completed a BA at the University of British Columbia. In the future I hope to pursue further research in the remote sensing of coastal wetlands.
