Caroline Juang is a hydroclimatologist and fire scientist with an interdisciplinary PhD from Columbia University, where she analyzed climate drivers of western US wildfires by integrating statistical methods with remote sensing, agency datasets, and ocean-atmosphere model outputs. A National Science Foundation GRFP and NASA FINESST fellow, she brings 11 years of research and program experience spanning NASA Goddard project coordination, citizen science platform development, and aerospace fellowship leadership. Caroline combines rigorous quantitative analysis with science communication and inclusive pedagogy—she completed Columbia’s Teaching Development Program and co-founded SpaceInterns.org to broaden access to aerospace opportunities. Her career blends hands-on data science and mentorship: she launched the Landslide Reporter citizen-science project and has served on executive and steering committees to advance diversity in geosciences. An artist as well as a scientist, she uses illustrations and comics to make complex Earth science and space stories more accessible. Based in Pasadena, she pairs deep domain expertise with a talent for public engagement and creative storytelling.
