I am a Research Assistant and Ph.D. candidate in Dr. Boutt's research group. My work is focused on deciphering the spatiotemporal dimensions of groundwater-surface water systems associated with the massive evaporite deposits in Salar de Atacama, Chile, and basins across the Puna Plateau in Argentina. Accelerating demand for energy storage has led to increasing development of brine resources in the “Lithium Triangle”, we seek to address persistent and fundamental questions to manage these resources sustainably.
