My research interests are centered on the intersection of people, power, and landscapes . I integrate my background in Geology and Physical Geography, Geospatial Science, Remote Sensing, and Critical Social Theory to understand environmental systems and change. I share a political commitment with the cognate disciplines of Political Ecology and Critical Physical Geography (CPG) to understand how material landscapes are influenced and shaped by socio-political actions and power. This has profound impacts on the types of questions and motivations of research, as well as the knowledge politics of who is included in the scientific process.
