Profile

As a scholar I’m interested in environmental activism and environmentalist discourses with a particular focus on inter-group collaboration, differential vulnerabilities, and place as a component of identity. My current research focuses on LGBTQ+ participation in environmental activism.

I am inspired by the scholarship of Dorceta Taylor, Patricia Hill Collins, Karma R. Chavéz, Taiaiake Alfred, and James M. Jasper; and by the social, cultural and political work of the countless people around the world who are creating social justice and defending land, water, and life.
