About Me: Welcome to my page! I am an interdisciplinary, environmental social scientist. My work sits at the nexus of human geography, public policy, and  sociology. I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Purdue University Department of Forestry and Natural Resources. In my research program, I use a collaborative approach to:
​

• Analyze how people perceive and adapt to social-ecological change
• Investigate how social inequality shapes how people adapt in households, groups, and natural resource organizations
• Recommend how to improve organizations, and the policies they make, to be more inclusive of difference​

​Areas of Expertise: Agriculture, Adaptation to Climate Change, Collaborative Methods, Environmental Justice and Policy, Governance,  Migration, Mixed-methods, NGOs, Public Participation, Qualitative Methods, and Survey Design
