Amanda Garcia
(she/her)Amanda is a Hydrologist and Groundwater Section Supervisor at the Oregon Water Science Center in Bend, Oregon. She has been with the USGS since 2000 investigating water flow, water availability, contaminant transport, and water sourcing across the groundwater-to-atmosphere continuum.
