Lynae joined the staff of Research & Planning in June 2014.

Lynae received her BS in Earth Sciences with a concentration in Meteorology in December 2012 from University of Northern Colorado. Coursework completed to obtain this degree included lectures and lab work in Physics I and II and Chemistry I and II, Calculus I, II, and III, Statistics, and Computer Sciences, including C++ and Java. Meteorology required coursework including assignments on Linux, numerical modeling, weather analysis, and multiple research projects.

Since working with Research & Planning, Lynae has contributed tables and graphs to multiple publications and presentations, expanded her computer programming skills through SQL Server, and participated on the editorial committee. She looks forward to using her analysis and computer programming skills to further contribute to research taking place within R&P.
