About

I am a hydrologist and work as a forecaster at BC Hydro. My daily bread and butter job is to forecast inflows for most of the reservoirs in our Province from an hourly to annual time scales.

When not forecasting, I try to improve our forecasting system, work on model calibrations, help improve models, etc. I also coordinate the flows in the Columbia River with the US as part of the Columbia River Treaty and act as BC Hydro’s subject matter expert for climate change modelling.

My research interests lie climate change modelling, modelling landscape changes, model calibration, statistical hydrology, probabilistic forecasting, and forecast verification. When not in front of a screen, you find me climbing, biking or backcountry skiing, reading books or speculating about things like the universe and consciousness.
