BA Geography-Geology from Vassar College and MSc in Energy Efficient Architecture from Oxford School of Architecture

My research interests lie in advancing and utilizing wave energy simulators to make feasible and commercially viable wave energy technologies. Currently I am investigating methods to reduce the computational demand of nonlinear froude krylov force calculations, as well as the optimization of the NREL HERO wave energy converter for reverse osmosis.
