Note she does not have a degree in anything associated with Climatology. Her resume provides NO credentials that she has worked in the field or on the models.
Instead:
"I love my job because I get to study the best place in the universe. I use satellite observations of the climate system, reconstructions of past climate change, and the output of computer models of the climate to understand what is climate change actually like, and is it happening now?
It’s great because I get to work with so much data!"
What has been your biggest challenge, professional or personal, and how did you overcome it?
I would say switching into a totally new field. I didn’t have a background in Earth science at all, but I had the raw tools of physics and math
So, she is an associate (apprentice in other fields) with no background or formal training in the field. NO EXPERIENCE AT ALL. Her own words.
Yes, let's take her word over the 80% to 90% of the scientists that have extensive training and have spent their lives working in the field
Ahem...
This reminds me of the Vets and Podiatrists and Nurses giving recommendations and predictions on virology and the pandemic, I guess some people look for anything to support their preconceived notions and jump for joy when they find an exception that agrees.

I'm sure that most of the scientists who believe in anthropogenic climate change would agree with that. The point, however, is that the descent of the slope is rapidly increasing.
