Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBryce Frank is a Research Mathematical Statistician with nine years of experience applying statistical science to forest biometrics, remote sensing, sampling design, allometric modeling, and carbon accounting. He combines field-hardened expertise—from running timber cruises and supervising biomass field crews to managing Trimble/GPS workflows—with advanced remote sensing and lidar processing skills developed during a PhD in Forest Biometrics at Oregon State. Currently at the U.S. Forest Service, Bryce focuses on large-scale uncertainty assessment for national forest inventories and builds software tooling for lidar processing, statistical analysis, and data visualization. He bridges practical forestry operations and reproducible computational methods, producing tools that make complex carbon and biomass estimates auditable and operational. Based in Olympia, Washington, he brings a rare blend of hands-on sampling experience and open-source-minded software craftsmanship to ecological monitoring and carbon accreditation.
