About Me
I am a Professor of Water Resources Engineering in the Gerald May Department of Civil, Construction & Environmental Engineering at the University of New Mexico. My research interests include hydrologic transport, wildfire effects on water quantity and quality, the interplay between food-energy and water resources, stream ecology, groundwater-surface water interactions, and smart tracers.
I am also an avid cyclist and enjoy riding road, gravel and mountain bicycles. From time to time, I compete in local and regional races.
