I am an applied social scientist with training in anthropology and ecology. I have interests in sustainability, food systems and security, and social and environmental justice. I collaborate with communities around the world on projects related to food security, conflict, environmental stewardship, and social justice.

My first book, "Finding our Niche: Toward a Restorative Human Ecology," will release in Fall, 2020, from Fernwood Publishing. Find out more at http://findingournichebook.com
