About Jessica
A desire to save the world, one river bend at a time, led Jessica to pursue a career in water resources engineering. Her role involves the application of river science, hydraulics, and hydrology to engineering problems, both large and small, and includes floodplain and river restoration, dam removal, aquatic organism passage, green stormwater design, flood mitigation and resiliency planning and design, gully stabilization, FEMA BCA, and advanced GIS analysis. In her off time, she can often be found outdoors, from skiing to canoeing, or creating pottery.
