Project Title: Accumulation of Sediment in Paonia Reservoir and its Effect on Storage Capacity

Mentors: Kristy Tiampo, Toby Minear and Michael John Willis, CIRES Earth Science & Observation Center

Bio: I am from Falcon, Colorado and just completed my associates degree in general studies at Pikes Peak Community College as a first generation student. I will be attending the University of Colorado Boulder this upcoming fall to pursue my bachelors degree in astrophysics. Other than RECCS both last year and this year, I have attended the NASA Community College Aerospace Scholars program in Cleveland, Ohio as well as volunteered my time at the Space Foundation in Colorado Springs. I love to learn new things and help others when I have the chance; I hope to one day be able to teach community college students like myself about the universe and the science that surrounds us every day.
