#MeetFloodNetNYC - Hannah Eisler Burnett, PhD is the Jamaica Bay Coastal Resilience Specialist for New York Sea Grant. Trained as a cultural anthropologist, Hannah has worked with coastal communities on the front lines of climate change in southeastern Louisiana, Chicago, and New York City. Before joining Sea Grant, Hannah was a postdoctoral scholar at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering, working on the citywide flood sensing project FloodNet NYC. Hannah holds a Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Chicago and a B.A. in Literature from Yale University, and has won awards from the Association for Political and Legal Anthropology and the University of Chicago for work that was funded by the National Science Foundation and the Wenner Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research.

Hannah brings these experiences to a portfolio of projects that address coastal resilience in the Jamaica Bay watershed.
