   abstract: Samantha Sullivan began her career at the USGS as a Pathways Intern
     in 2016. During this time, she helped code a program from SAS to R that performed
     MOVE.1 regression to estimate characteristics of low flows. For her senior project,
     she implemented multiple regression, score regression models, and cluster analysis
     to estimate flood magnitude and frequency for NJ streams and rivers. Lastly,
     she utilized change point analysis to detect changes in loads due to the increasing
     implementation of management practices in agricultural and urban areas designed
     to decrease stream loads. Currently, Samantha is a Statistician for the USGS.
     She is working with the NAWQA team to help convert code from SAS to R that performs
     data wrangling and nutrient calculations on water quality data across the United
     States. She is also updating streamflow statistics for continuous-record streamflow
     gaging stations and low-flow partial-record stations. Within the realm of statistics,
     Samantha interests are in nonparametric statistics, multivariate statistics,
     regression analysis, statistical programing, data wrangling, data analysis,
     and data modeling. She wants to use her statistics knowledge in order to help
     the USGS organize, describe, and interpret their data.
