David Gold

David Gold is a Ph.D. candidate in Environmental and Water Resources Systems (EWRS) with the Reed Research Group at Cornell University. His research focuses on water supply planning under conditions of deep uncertainty that stem from climate change and population growth. Professor Gold has a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Lafayette College and a Master of Engineering degree in EWRS from Cornell. Prior to arriving at Cornell, he worked as a design engineer for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service in Rhode Island. When Professor Gold is not teaching or doing research at Cornell, he likes to play the banjo
