   intro_statements:
   - 'Nancy is a hydrologist with the Wyoming-Montana Water Science Center in Helena,
     Montana. She specializes in statistical hydrology: peak-flow flood frequency
     analysis and regression, mixed population analysis, nonstationarity and changes
     in seasonality.'

   personal_statement: "Nancy is currently a co-investigator on a multi-year, multi-phase\
     \ regional study evaluating potential nonstationarity in annual peak flows and\
     \ changes in seasonality related to hydroclimatic variability in the Midwest.\
     \ And she is currently updating at-site peak-flow frequency analysis (FFA) in\
     \ South Dakota. Previously she worked on studies to update FFA estimates at\
     \ both gaged and ungaged sites in California and Alaska. She also worked with\
     \ the USGS Office of Surface Water as a corresponding member of the Hydrologic\
     \ Frequency Analysis Workgroup (HFAWG) under ACWI\u2019s Subcommittee on Hydrology\
     \ to update the Federal guidelines for determining flood frequency estimates\
     \ in Bulletin 17C. In 2018, she completed her doctoral research at the University\
     \ of Iowa in Civil and Environmental Engineering focused on improving flood\
     \ frequency estimates based on the hydrometeorologic processes that drive much\
     \ of the mixed populations of peak streamflows throughout the western United\
     \ States. Her doctoral research built upon her work as a hydrologist with the\
     \ USGS to better understand the complex process-driven flood hydrology found\
     \ in the western United States."
