Tyler Pardun has received his Bachelors and Master's in Meteorology from OU and is currently working towards his PhD in Meteorology studying tornadic and non-tornadic supercell thunderstorms using observations from recent field campaigns. During his Master's degree, Tyler studied QLCS mesovortices and tornadoes using radar observations from the MRMS system to highlight differences in mesovortex charecteristics between tornadic and non-tornadic mesovortices. 

Tyler moved to OU to begin his undergraduate degree from the Northwest suburbs of Chicago and has enjoyed his time working with leading scientists in the field at the National Weather Center. Tyler has also enjoyed his time as a Teaching Assistant for non-major Meteorology courses throughout his graduate school career thus far.
