I am an interdisciplinary social scientist and community-engaged scholar with a background in human geography (PhD, 2016, University of Kansas) and urban studies (MUS, 2008, Portland State University). I have diverse interests that include, but are not limited to:
- people-place relationships and human-environment interactions (e.g., sense of place, attachment, identity, meaning, place-based behaviors, toponymy);
- community well-being, health, and development;
- justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion (e.g., landscape in/justice);
- human dimensions of fisheries, wildlife, natural resource, and shoreline management;
- built-natural environment interactions (e.g., infrastructure);
- governance, public policy, and power (e.g., environmental, urban, transboundary, and regional); and
- theory and methods (e.g. community-based participatory research).
