Last week of classes and I'm grateful for advising amazing PhD students and undergraduate researchers who have been doing great work developing innovative ways to adapt to climate change and new methods and machine learning approaches to enhance the understanding of water quality trends and changes!

Great first week of classes at Drexel University! Also had the pleasure to be an invited seminar speaker in the Earth and Environmental Science Seminar Series at Temple University! Glad to share my research on the importance of process-based approaches to investigate major drivers of water pollution

AGU H3S invites you to submit an abstract to our session at #AGU25 Thinking Outside the Box Plot: Communicating Science Beyond the Paper! The session explores creative ways to communicate research. Conveners: @adischner.bsky.social @acarneiromar.bsky.social @gescilam.bsky.social Cee Nell Emily Ellis

Happy to attend the #GRC Catchment Science: Integrations of Hydrology, Biology and Geochemistry this week, connect and discuss ideas with amazing researchers, and present my work on "Understanding Winter Salt Transport in Environmental Systems to Support Water Management". What a great experience!

End of my first academic year as an Assistant Professor at Drexel University! Spring term highlights: advised my first senior design group throughout the year, was part of my first MS Thesis Committee, and taught a great GIS class to seniors and grad students! Really thankful for everything!

Great week at #AEESP2025! What a great opportunity to meet long-time friends, colleagues, and mentors, present my research on water quality trends in the Philadelphia drinking water supply system, and establish new collaborations! Happy to be part of this community!

Happy to participate in the 2025 World Environmental and Water Resources Congress organized by the American Society of Civil Engineers. So rewarding to discuss the application of science and engineering to complex environments in multiple contexts, and for experiencing unique adventures in Alaska!

Great start to the Spring term for my new Geographic Information Systems course at Drexel University! I'm really enthusiastic about teaching this hands-on course where the students can apply this tool in their own research and interest areas!

Happy International Women's Day to all my colleagues, mentors, students, and fellow researchers, professors, engineers, and scientists who overcome challenges every day and work towards a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive society! We all make a difference! #internationalwomensday #womeninstem

Glad to contribute to the BIPoC-STEM Student Summit at Drexel University today! It is a great initiative to foster community, promote connections, and engage students from underrepresented groups in academia. I am really grateful for having the opportunity to be a part of it!

Happy to share that I joined the Editorial Board of International Soil and Water Conservation Research. Enthusiastic to contribute by reviewing manuscripts, providing strategic guidance, and helping to shape the future direction of the journal! www.sciencedirect.com/journal/inte...

Thrilled to share that we were awarded the Longsview Fellowship for our project "Understanding the Impacts of Circular Water Strategies on Flood Mitigation and Climate Resilience for Urban Communities". I am happy to contribute to addressing challenges in sustainable water management!

Thrilled to participate in the KEEN National Conference for the first time! An amazing opportunity to foster the entrepreneurial mindset in engineering education by promoting curiosity, connections, and creating value in the learning environment! #KNC2025

This week, my research on deicing agents was featured on the news: whyy.org/articles/roa... newsblog.drexel.edu/2025/01/15/q... I appreciate all the support I have been receiving during the development of this research!

Experts recommend ‘road salt diet’ as snow storm hits the Philly region

While salt makes it safer to walk and drive, it can also pollute waterways, soil and groundwater.

First day teaching at Drexel University! So grateful for the opportunity of teaching a core course in the CAEE Department. A lot of effort and energy are being invested to make sure the course is designed in a way that will provide a great and engaging learning experience for the students!

Grateful for presenting my research at #AGU24. A great opportunity to exchange ideas with brilliant scientists. Thankful to everyone @agu.org who organized sessions, meetings, and gatherings, and for all the support of my colleagues. Science is better because of this collaborative community!

Happy to be at #AGU24 in DC! Excited to present my research on investigating major drivers of freshwater salinization in watersheds on Wednesday afternoon and connecting with amazing scientists this week! @agu.org What a great opportunity to discuss science!

One of my favorite parts of this job is working with motivated students! I'm proud of the first senior design group I'm advising at Drexel University for presenting their project proposal about the importance of climate resilience to flood mitigation in environmental justice communities. Great work!

I am recruiting highly motivated #PhD students to join my research group at Drexel University in the Spring/Fall 2025! Please visit research.coe.drexel.edu/caee/water/j... to learn more about my research and how to apply! #waterquality #climatechange #modeling #watermanagement
