   personal_statement: "Geomatics integrates geospatial science and technology disciplines\
     \ such as photogrammetry, remote sensing, GIS, GNSS, and geodesy. These are\
     \ fundamental tools for Volcano Science Center monitoring and research projects.I\
     \ specialize in quantitative fluvial geomorphology, which uses geomatics, field\
     \ instrumentation, and sampling to study sediment transport in disturbed volcanic\
     \ systems. My current research focus is developing innovative uses of camera\
     \ systems, including high-precision photogrammetric models of vegetated river\
     \ channels and a suspended-sediment surrogate based on close-range multispectral\
     \ \u2018SedCam\u2019 imagery.As the Volcano Hazards Program Lidar Coordinator,\
     \ I leverage local and national partnerships to acquire topographic data needed\
     \ for volcano hazard modeling, mapping, and eruption forecasting efforts."
