Environmental Science Associate with 5+ years of experience working with advanced instruments that measure clouds, precipitation, aerosols (ground-based and aircraft), and radiation, such as: Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitors (ACSM), Aethalometers, Aerodynamic Particle Sizers (APS), Cloud Condensation Nuclei Particle Counters (CCN), Carbon Monoxide Analyzers, Condensation Particle Counters (CPC), Greenhouse Gas Monitors (GHG), Nephelometers, Nitrogen Oxides Monitors (NOX), Optical Particle Counters (OPC) Ozone Monitors, Scanning Mobility Particle Sizers (SMPS), Single Particle Soot Photometers (SP2), Sun/Moon Photometers, Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometers (UHSAS) and several Radars and Lidars. I also have worked on deployment and management of two remote sites, first at Rio Branco (Acre, Brazil) in a intensive four months burning season campaign and second at Amazon Tall Tower Observatory's (ATTO) ancillary site (Amazonas, Brazil), and Technical-lead/Engineer at ATTO site. My background is in Information Technology and I also have a Master’s Degree in Informatics.
