I have been formally involved in ESIP since 2011 and led the membership application process for the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). During my career at the NCAR, I worked with scientists, engineers, data experts, technicians and other support staff, deploying observational platforms for atmospheric science experiments around the world. Today, I work to build and deploy inexpensive sensor systems with and for underserved communities, often located in regions experiencing severe climate impacts. I believe that ESIP is the home for professionals to learn, discuss, innovate, share and support each other in their pursuit of data science. All of this great work and collaboration is supported by ESIP leadership and I believe a Board Member’s role of service is critical to our continuing success.

I have been formally involved in ESIP since 2011 and led the membership application process for the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). During my career at the NCAR, I worked with scientists, engineers, data experts, technicians and other support staff, deploying observational platforms for atmospheric science experiments around the world. Today, I work to build and deploy inexpensive sensor systems with and for underserved communities, often located in regions experiencing severe climate impacts. I believe that ESIP is the home for professionals to learn, discuss, innovate, share and support each other in their pursuit of data science. All of this great work and collaboration is supported by ESIP leadership and I believe a Board Member’s role of service is critical to our continuing success.

In terms of prior ESIP service, I was Chair of the Governance Committee (2017 and 2018), ESIP Vice President (2019) and ESIP Partnership Chair (2020 and 2021). I received the ESIP President’s Award in 2017 and have been involved in the selection of the Raskin Scholar for several years. In addition to Board and Committee service, I have developed ESIP Lab proposals, worked closely with ESIP Fellows and ESIP Staff and have been an active participant in many ESIP leadership tasks. I am especially passionate about the development and mentorship of new ESIP leaders to enhance diversity and inclusion.

If elected I would continue to promote the great work we are doing and create initiatives that help articulate the value of ESIP and science data for all. As promised in my statement for my previous term, I have worked with ESIP Leadership to secure additional NSF support and we are very close to the approval of a new proposal. I would especially like to continue to see this work through.

It would be an honor to serve as an ESIP At-Large Board Member and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the earth science data community in this capacity.
