I develop machine learning for Earth observation data. My primary application areas are improving agricultural management and forecasting climate phenomena. Currently, I am a Ciriacy-Wantrup Postdoctoral Fellow at UC Berkeley, hosted by Solomon Hsiang and the Global Policy Lab. In 2021, I obtained my PhD in Computational and Mathematical Engineering from Stanford University, where I was advised by David Lobell and benefited from mentors at the Center on Food Security and the Environment and the Sustainability and AI Lab.
