     water resource data in the State of Colorado.

   personal_statement: Brandon started his career in 2008 as a Hydrologic Technician
     with the Arizona Water Science Center in Tucson.  His work focused on streamgage
     calibration, surveying, and water-use investigations.  In 2012, Brandon joined
     the team as a Hydrologist and focused his work on surface-water modeling to
     improve the understanding of ephemeral river channel processes.  During that
     time his focus turned to the use of close-range remote sensing techniques using
     uncrewed aircraft systems to enhance data collection.  Brandon also specialized
     in the response to natural disasters and led teams in the collection of information
     to better understand the effects of major riverine flooding in Texas, flooding
     and storm surge during Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Maria and supported the
     response to the 2018 eruption of Kilauea.In 2021, Brandon joined the Colorado
     Water Science Center as the Studies Section Chief of the Southeastern Office
     in Pueblo.  Brandon worked with a team of Hydrologists and Hydrologic Technicians
     studying the water resources of the Arkansas River Basin.  In 2022, Brandon
     became the Associate Center Director overseeing the Hydrologic Data Collection
     Program for the State of Colorado.  Brandon works with a team of about 60 Hydrologic
     Technicians who maintain the roughly 355 streamgages, 110 raingages/meteorological
     sites, and 125 real-time water quality monitoring stations within Colorado.
