- Senior Research Fellow, Antarctic Research Centre, Te Herenga Waka — Victoria University of Wellington
I am a Senior Research Fellow at the Antarctic Research Centre, Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington. My research focuses on understanding how mountain systems respond to climate change, using remote sensing, drone surveys and data-driven approaches to study Earth surface processes including snow and ice dynamics and alpine hydrology. My work spans New Zealand’s Southern Alps, Antarctica, the Colorado Rockies and Peru’s Cordillera Blanca, applying high-resolution geospatial data to better understand environmental change in complex terrain.
