• Matthew's research is about improving tornado predictability using weather regimes. It's research that goes into both climate change and severe weather. His hobbies include running and watching sports in general, hiking and being outside, trying different kinds of coffee, and hanging out with my friends. He is excited to be a graduate student ambassador because he is looking forward to outreach events and being a mentor to other students.
