I work at the intersection of environment and policy, primarily in the Canadian context. My research interests integrate the social and physical sciences, taking a critical approach to resource management, climate change, environmental policy, and (neo)colonial systems of governance. Teaching interests parallel my research activities, and in the classroom I stress the importance of publicly engaged education and experiential/service learning.

My approach is highly interdisciplinary, integrating ideas from the fields of critical resource geography, environmental justice, political ecology, and postcolonial studies. In general, I aim to contribute to critical and timely scholarship that fosters socially just economies, progressive environmental policies, and practical solutions in a low-carbon society.
