Summary
Sin Lin is a civil and environmental engineer and Staff Engineer II in the New York City area with eight years of hands-on experience in water infrastructure, stormwater management, and hydrologic modeling. With an M.S. from Columbia and a B.S. from UVA, Sin bridges academic research—ranging from desalination membranes and hemp-PLA composites to chloride-induced concrete degradation—with applied projects that quantify climate impacts on the NYC watershed. At Boomi Environmental and Columbia Climate School she has developed SWAT+ and other hydraulic/hydrologic modeling methodologies, led green/grey infrastructure design, and translated technical results for policymakers and utilities. Her background includes prototyping Python-based service-life prediction tools at NIST and practical field monitoring and inspection work, showing a rare blend of coding, lab experimentation, and boots-on-the-ground implementation. Sin pairs technical rigor with cross-disciplinary communication and a demonstrated interest in scalable, sustainable solutions for climate adaptation and water quality.
