From page 285...
... Areas of expertise include the formulation of ground water projects, modification and development of new off-the-shelf numerical simulation models for adaptation to specific field projects, and evaluation of contaminant and energy transport in ground water systems. Current interests lie in developing techniques for quantifying the risk associated with a given level of contamination in ground water when only limited data are available.

... in management in 1986 from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Since 1982 she has served as scientist, Northeast Utilities Service Company, Hartford, Connecticut, where she designs projects to investigate conditions at hazardous waste sites; evaluates chemical data and water flow information to determine the extent of contamination and recommend remedial measures; and negotiates with regulatory agencies to obtain required permits and approval of site studies.
