Summary
Jeffrey Kwang is a physical scientist with eight years of research experience specializing in modeling landscape and fluvial processes, currently applying that expertise at the U.S. Geological Survey. He holds a PhD in Civil Engineering from the University of Illinois and completed postdoctoral fellowships at UMass Amherst and the University of Minnesota, where his work combined landscape evolution modeling with experimental studies of sediment transport. Jeffrey’s background bridges field, laboratory, and computational approaches, and he has a practical bent for digitization and archival work dating back to his early role at Johns Hopkins. Based in Saint Paul, he brings both rigorous academic training and hands-on data stewardship to large-scale environmental problems—and, perhaps tellingly, credits a cat named Pillsbury as part of his bio, hinting at a personable, meticulous character behind the science.
