Profile
I am a professional engineer (North and South Carolina) who focuses on stormwater management. My goal is to improve water quality across the Carolinas.
Research Interests
My research focuses on using stormwater best management practices (BMPs) to improve water quality and reduce flooding concerns. I am particularly interested in green stormwater infrastructure and retrofitting traditional BMPs to improve their performance.
