I am a Project Scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research working in the Oceanography Section of the Climate & Global Dynamics Laboratory. I serve as the science liaison for the Ocean Model Working Group of CESM. I lead the development of the Modular Ocean Model version 6 (MOM6) within the Community Earth System Model (CESM) framework.

My research interests include:

• Ocean model development;
• The role of the ocean in the climate system;
• Ice/ocean interactions and their effects on the climate system;
• Coastal ocean dynamics.
