Hi, I'm Leah.

I'm a data scientist, mathematician, software developer, and researcher working at the intersection of environmental science, data, and software. My work focuses on using mathematical and statistical methods to make sense of complex environmental systems.

I am currently at Air Quality Data Scientist at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE GitHub).

Open Source Projects

Automated mapping of esat Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) profiles to EPA SPECIATE emission sources using machine learning

Started as an N=1 analysis of my running efficiency before and after heat adaptation, using my own training data, and ended with a 50k race plus some solid insights along the way. See write-ups on my blog: We got a runner, Regression on the Run, Running the Numbers.

Data analysis tools for analysis of POPS SAIL-Net data, integrating and visualizing aerosol data from a 1.5-year DOE-funded field campaign.

ACT (contributor)

Enhanced visualization capabilities and added corresponding unit tests to improve functionality and reliability.

sai-simulator (contributor)

Implemented a CLI-based subset download feature for a 140 GB dataset and expanded visualization support for climate model outputs.

esat (contribuutor)

Identified and fixed a bug in the package while using it for source apportionment analysis.
