I am leading HYR-SENSE from the NASA side, integrating my background in equity and justice work to ensure the course is supportive of indigenous and environmental justice goals. I am really looking forward to making new connections and building this HYR-SENSE community. In my free time you can find me outside, in the soil or the water. |

I am a former K-12 educator and have worked with various research teams examining topics such as reading comprehension, AI for student collaboration, and now environmental data science. I enjoy facilitating the connections between people, whether community members, researchers, teachers, or students so we can all continue to learn from one another. When I'm not working, you may find me at a yoga class, taking a walk, or spending time with my cats (Zelda, Hazel, and Henry). |

Hello, my name is Jim. Sičáŋǧu Lakóta etáŋhaŋ wauwé yeló. I come from the Burnt Thigh or Rosebud people. One of the seven bands/tribes of the Lakóta Oyáte. I was raised in HeSapa or the Black Hills of South Dakota. I am ESIIL’s Tribal Resilience Data Scientist. My interests are remote sensing, geospatial applications, data sovereignty, and working with all Tribes and TCUs bringing EDS to their communities. In my spare time I enjoy collecting rocks/minerals and making leather regalia such as quivers, sheaths, backpacks, pouches, etc. |

| ![Ben Poulter](../assets/hyrsense_facilitators/Ben_Poulter.png) | **Ben Poulter**<br>Ben is a research scientist in the Earth Sciences Division at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. His research team uses dynamic global vegetation models to explore climate and land-use impacts on the global carbon cycle. Ben co-lead the science and applications team for the NASA Surface Biology and Geology mission, developing and implementing model workflows to quantify uncertainty in reflectance retrievals, algorithms and propagation to carbon and hydrologic processes. He is looking forward to introducing students to tools that provide access to remote sensing data to solve pressing ecological questions. He’s currently hooked on Merlin and documenting bird sightings in ebird. |

My background is in ecology, GIS, and remote sensing. At the LP DAAC I provide insights into user needs through user community engagement and outreach activities, and technical support for data archiving, data distribution, and service development. Outside of work you’ll find me at dance competitions – for my two daughters, not me 😉 – or upkeeping my landscaping at our home in Fort Myers, FL – it’s impossible to keep up with. |

Bridget is a remote sensing data scientist and data skills educator at NEON, working jointly on the Airborne Observation Platform and Data Skills teams. She is originally from Corvallis, Oregon (the Willamette Valley). Growing up in the Pacific Northwest instilled a love of nature - forests, oceans, and mountains, which she’s carried with her into her career. Before working at NEON and with airborne data, Bridget worked in marine geophysics, supporting oceanographic research projects such as seafloor mapping expeditions. Outside of work, Bridget enjoys getting outside for biking, hiking, and camping, and she also enjoys card games, reading, friends, and her cat Milou. |

I am from Chicago, Illinois. I study water resources and cascading natural hazards, like the cascade of drought, wildfire, heavy rainfall, and mudslides that becomes a much larger problem than any of those separately. These days, I work on culturally relevant curriculum for our many awesome Indigenous students and faculty partners, professional students, and aspiring Environmental Data Science educators and community leaders. At home, I enjoy playing music and enacting grandiose plans for my future backyard food forest.|
