Personal Statement

• The study of groundwater flow and transport appeals to me because it's so interdisciplinary- math, physics, chemistry, biology, and geology are only some of the disciplines involved. Furthermore, there are so many different scales to consider- from the molecular scale to the basin scale and from time scales of seconds to millions of years.

Education

• Bachelors; Brown University, 1981
• Ph.D.; University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, 1988

Research

• experimental investigations of immiscible fluid flow and interphase mass exchange between fluids
• experimental investigations of novel methods for remediating contaminated groundwater
• mathematical simulations for predicting contaminant transport and remediation at the field scale
• mathematical optimization of groundwater remediation systems
• role of faults in basin-scale groundwater flow
