About

Assistant Professor of Practice career-track) teaching in the online GIST program. I have focused my research on topics surrounding uncertainty visualization, spatial cognition, geovisualization, cartography, and geographic information science. In recent research, I take a cognitive approach towards addressing the visualization of complex geospatial data uncertainty and how we make decisions under uncertain conditions. One project focuses on evaluating evacuation decisions people make under uncertainty when interacting with the National Hurricane Center storm surge flood maps. Prior to this project I designed a visual summary that depicts the various topics of geospatial uncertainty research. Using this visual summary to shade in topics within the diagram, you can discover the specific sub-topics covered in any given paper at a glance.
