Alexis Wilson

Alexis Wilson is a 3rd year Earth and Atmospheric Science undergrad student with research interests in remote sensing, climate dynamics, and tropical meteorology, specifically tropical storms and hurricanes. Over the past spring and summer, she studied at the University of Leeds in Leeds, England. She is an active member of the American Meteorological Society (AMS) and Students Observing and Researching Meteorology (StORM) club, and she is often seen at the EAS front desk as a Student Assistant.

Emma Brown

Emma Brown is a third year EAS major with research interests in geochemistry and icy bodies, specifically what makes a planet habitable. She recently got back from a trip doing fieldwork in British Columbia, Canada where she collected samples from chemically "weird" lakes as part of an OAST (Oceans Across Space and Time) project. She will spend the rest of the semester performing ion chromatography on the samples for her research under Britney Schmidt.

Gigi Pavur

Gigi Pavur is a 4th year undergraduate EAS major with research interests in Earth observations, remote sensing, and natural disasters. She spent her summer after sophomore year interning at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC with the Earth Science Division’s Applied Sciences Program. This past summer, Gigi was a part of the NASA DEVELOP program at NASA Langley Research Center. Her project involved partnering with international government agencies to improve a landslide situational awareness model for the Dominican Republic through the integration of NASA Earth Observations.

Hannah Verboncoeur

Hannah Verboncoeur is a 2nd year EAS undergraduate major pursuing the research option with interests in glacial geophysics. Her early research focused on the geomorphological processes of the earth’s surface with Dr. Ken Ferrier, including chemical depletion in regolith, bedrock frost fracture, and knickpoint propagation.

Brad Rubin

Brad Rubin is a third year EAS Major with a Meteorology focus. Brad’s main interests are severe weather cyclogenesis, operational forecasting, meteorological consulting, and (occasionally) storm chasing. He is an active member of the American Meteorological Society (AMS); he currently serves as President of Georgia Tech’s AMS student chapter, StORM Club, and he attended the 2019 AMS Student Conference. He is currently researching jet superposition events and near-miss events under the guidance of Dr.

Sara Tonks

Sara Tonks a third year BS/MS student majoring in Earth and Atmospheric Sciences with a focus in Meteorology. She is most interested in severe weather, emergency management, meteorological data analysis, and fieldwork. She is an active member of the American Meteorological Society (AMS); she currently serves as Vice President of Georgia Tech’s AMS student chapter, StORM Club, and she attended the 2019 AMS Student Conference. She has TA’d EAS 1600 (Introduction to Environmental Sciences) and EAS 1601 (Habitable Worlds).

Xinyi (Camilla) Liu

Xinyi (Camilla) Liu is a 3rd year senior EAS undergraduate major with a minor in German. She will begin her PhD in Fall 2019. Her undergraduate research has focused on landscape and early life evolution, and her most recent project involves Earth system modelling with Dr. Chris Reinhard. She is an EAS lab TA, a member of Sigma Gamma Epsilon, a PURA recipient, and an Alternative Break Coordinator in GT Trailblazers. Camilla is from China.

Lily Sandler

Lily Sandler is a 3rd year EAS major. Her research interests lie in biogeochemistry. She does undergraduate research with Dr. Jennifer Glass on oceanic nitrogen cycling. She is working to develop a method to efficiently measure hydroxylamine, a reactive intermediate of the nitrogen cycle that react to produce nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas.

Kathrine Udell

Kathrine Udell is a 4th year EAS student minoring in Sustainable Cities. Her research interests are in planetary science and glaciology. She does undergraduate research with Dr. Britney Schmidt on the dynamics of glaciers in Greenland. In 2017, Kathrine worked on the TARGIT CubeSat LiDAR project under Dr. Brian Gunter. Kathrine also spent a semester interning at EGSci, a geotechnical consulting company.

Kayla Duarte

Kayla Duarte is a third year EAS major concentrating in planetary science and will be graduating in May 2019. She has been working on NASA’s Dawn Mission with Dr. Britney Schmidt since her freshman year studying geomorphological features on dwarf planet Ceres and the role of ground ice in its subsurface.
