Climate & Society

I am a human-environment geographer who studies the different ways people know and experience climate. I use qualitative research methods and draw from political ecology and human dimensions of global change to understand the impacts of climate hazards such as drought, aridity, and wildfires. My research also seeks to understand ways in which to center equity and justice in climate services. As a research scientist with CLIMAS, I work with interdisciplinary teams on climate vulnerability, adaptation, and resilience in the Southwest.
