Summary
Alyssa M is a Radar Data Analyst at PNNL with 11 years of experience applying Python and large-data tools on DOE supercomputers to curate and analyze multi-terabyte datasets from the world’s largest research weather radar network. She has served as ARM Aerial Facility flight scientist and payload manager, directing airborne sensor integrations and real-time mission decisions during field campaigns. Her background includes graduate research in atmospheric sciences and hands-on teaching in forecasting, giving her a strong blend of operational leadership and scientific rigor. Based in California, she is skilled at translating complex radar measurements into high-quality, campaign-ready datasets and has deep practical experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams in dynamic field conditions. A detail often unseen: she pairs mission-level decision-making during flights with low-level data-quality assurance workflows, bridging the gap between collection and analysis.
