I am a postdoctoral associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change and Center for Global Change Science, where I am currently working as a member of the Joint Program's Integrated Global System Model (IGSM) on coupling the NCAR Community Atmosphere Model version 3.1 (CAM3.1) to the IGSM in order to achieve its 3-dimensional capabilities.

I received my Ph.D. in Atmospheric Science from the University of California, Davis in 2009 under the advisement of Professor Bryan C. Weare. For my doctoral research, I investigated the trends and ENSO impacts in the wave forcing of the stratospheric zonal-mean flow and ozone transport. I also examined the Madden-Julian Oscillation wind-convection coupling and the role of moisture processes using the mesoscale regional model MM5.

Before starting my doctoral research, I received a Master of Engineering in Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics at the INPT ENSEEIHT engineering school in Toulouse, France in 2003.
