Apply my knowledge of data analysis, signal processing, and computer modeling to the solution of complex ocean and atmospheric problems. Interests include: data telemetry, networking, compressive sensing, time reversal, beamforming, matched field processing, propagation modeling, internal waves, and other signal processing techniques.
