    I am a geographer who studies the relationship between human society and the environment at various geographic levels. I apply both quantitative (i.e., statistics and geospatial models) and qualitative (i.e., in-person interviews and policy analysis) methods in my research.

    As a National Academies of Sciences Gulf Research Program Early-Career Research Fellow, my current research is focused on the U.S. Gulf Coast Region.
