Experience
Fulbright Scholar
Mar 2025 — Present · Santiago, CL
As a Fulbright Chile Science Initiative Scholar, I am conducting interdisciplinary research on glacier retreat and its downstream impacts in the Araucanía region. Hosted jointly by the University of Chile’s Civil Engineering Department and Indigenous Peoples Program, my work integrates geodetic glacier mass balance measurements, glacier-hydrological modeling, and semi-structured interviews with periglacial communities. This approach seeks to bridge scientific methods with Indigenous and local knowledge, recognizing community memory as a critical resource for understanding climate change and informing adaptation strategies.
