Hello, my name is Jordan Thomas and I am a AAAS Science, Technology & Policy Fellow at the Department of Energy in the Advanced Scientific Computing Research program office. I have a PhD in Earth and Planetary Science from Johns Hopkins University and extensive experience in data science and computing.
I first became interested in climate science during a high school project on the ozone hole. I completed a degree in meteorology at the Pennsylvania State University where my interest in atmospheric and oceanic dynamics grew. At Johns Hopkins I pursued this interest in atmospheric and ocean dynamics further by completing my disstetation entitled: Investigating Multi-Decadal Atmosphere and Ocean Variability. Through my dissertation research, I formed an interest in data analysis and data science. Since graduating I have been working to further my data science and statistical knowledge and skills.
