   personal_statement: As a geologist, Alisha Ellis' work been focused on analyzing
     coastal environmental change using geological and ecological data. She has experience
     with foraminifera microfossils, lithologic core logs, various physical sediment
     parameters, radioanalytical spectroscopy and the development of geochronologies
     using uranium series isotopes. She uses these proxies to assess short-term and
     long-term changes in marsh and estuarine environments to assess system feedbacks
     and how these environments are impacted by natural events and anthropogenic
     activities.
