Karissa Pepin

Before coming to Stanford Geophysics, Karissa has lived in Minnesota, South Dakota, Pennsylvania, and Texas. Her work is inspired by the human connection to the planet: how humans affect the subsurface environment and how the response, in turn, affects humans and ecosystems. When not working on her research, Karissa is actively involved in SE3 Wellness Initiatives, DEI efforts, and mentoring/teaching opportunities. She loves water sports (both open and ice), animals, and creating music.
