Biography
Professional Bio: 
My goal is to continue to learn and utilize new technologies, whether it be a supercomputer or a smart tracer, to better understand Earth's hydrologic system. I would like to pursue a career that allows me to assist managers in making informed decisions about water both in real time and using forecasts, predict changes to future water resources, and assist local water users (municipalities, developers, farmers, ranchers) in improving their water systems. http://www.linkedin.com/pub/jordan-beamer/20/a80/89b
Personal Bio:

I am originally from Madras, Oregon and my family still operates a small farm raising hay and grass fed beef. In high school and early college years, I managed the irrigation, machinery and hay sales for the farm. I also had the opportunity to work as a technician for the aquatic bio team at the nearby Round Butte Hydropower project. These experiences motivated me to choose a career in water resources, first an undergraduate degree in Earth Science, then masters in Hydrogeology, and finally back to Oregon for a PhD in Water Resources.
