   intro_statements:
   - I am a geophysicist specializing in volcanic systems. I use monitoring data
     to better understand and forecast volcanic processes and hazards.

   personal_statement: "I work to understand volcanic systems by developing mathematical\
     \ models which relate magma physics with monitoring data such as ground deformations\
     \ and eruption rates. Model predictions can be compared with real-world observations\
     \ using probabilistic statistical approaches, making it possible to constrain\
     \ properties of volcanic systems such as the composition and volume of stored\
     \ magma. These techniques can also be used in some cases to forecast future\
     \ eruptive activity. I've worked most extensively at Mount St. Helens and K\u012B\
     lauea volcanoes, but I'm interested in volcanoes and eruptions around the world.Research\
