   additionalType: staff profile page introductory statement
 - '@type': TextObject
   abstract: I am a Physical Scientist at the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science
     Center with the U.S. Geological Survey. I oversee projects that define shorelines
     and measure shoreline change. I am interested in maintaining foundational shoreline
     datasets that support more complex models of coastal change. My focus recently
     has been helping migrate the USGS's Digital Shoreline Analysis System software
     (an application that calculates shoreline or boundary change over time) to a
     platform agnostic application that can run without the need for a licensed GIS
     software, supporting the needs of the global user base for change analysis.
