I am a hydrogeologist who has worked almost 30 years in Texas. I've worked at the Bureau of Economic Geology and the Texas Water Development Board and presently work at the Meadows Center for Water and the Environment. In addition to aquifers, I love history and the intersection of science and policy. I also love cats and tacos.
