Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to co-present a keynote at the CIROH Developers Conference (DevCon 2025), which attracted over 200 attendees. This presentation, which I presented alongside Dan Ames, focused on "CIROH HydroInformatics and Research Cyberinfrastructure." It was a fantastic experience to share insights into the powerful tools and technologies that CIROH engineers, students, researchers have been developing to advance hydrological research and operations.

May was a pivotal month for representing the Cooperative Institute for Research to Operations in Hydrology (CIROH) and our collective work in advancing water science. As one of CIROH's Ambassadors, I had the privilege of connecting with the broader scientific community at two key events: the Environmental and Water Resources Institute (EWRI) Congress in Anchorage, Alaska, and the 2025 CIROH Developers Conference in Burlington, Vermont.

Last week at Google Cloud Next representing our CIROH cloud-based computing efforts! With more than 30,000 participants, Google Next always amazes me! It's huge, engaging on so many levels! Engaging booths, networking opportunities, great presentations, workshops, AI coach for basketball, incredible keynote from an amazing team! Event was not just a conference, but a celebration of innovation and a glimpse into the future of cloud computing! Great to see how Gemini is transforming data manipulation in BigQuery. The ability to use natural language to query, transform, and visualize data is revolutionizing how we interact with massive datasets. Gabe Weiss's demo particularly showcased the potential for non-specialists to derive insights from complex data.
