     \ Quality Specialist for the USGS Colorado Water Science Center (WSC) in Lakewood,\
     \ Colorado."
   additionalType: staff profile page introductory statement
 - '@type': TextObject
   abstract: Becky started her USGS career in 2012 at the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana WSC
     as a physical scientist working on projects ranging from air quality monitoring
     at a combined disposal facility in East Chicago, Indiana, to groundwater-level
     monitoring for a network of wells in Carmel, Indiana. In 2016, she began work
     as a hydrologist at the New Mexico WSC where she has focused her efforts on
     studying anthropogenic contamination and studies in the designated Urban Waters
     area of Albuquerque, NM. These studies have involved innovative passive sampling
     of groundwater and surface water, sampling of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances,
     and analysis of geochemical and age dating tracers for groundwater. Prior to
     working for the USGS, she spent 11 years working on source water protection
     and remediation projects for Indiana Department of Environmental Management.
     She has a M.S. in Geological Sciences from Indiana University - Bloomington.
