Environmental sociologist
I received a PhD in Sociology from Colorado State University in 2019 and am currently a postdoctoral research fellow in the geography department at the University of Exeter. I have spent eight years studying the impacts of proposed fracking projects on communities in the US and the UK. I use theoretical frameworks of power and an environmental justice lens to explore institutions, decision-making processes, place attachment, community engagement and collective action in the context of energy and climate policy across multiple governance scales. I am the lead editor of "Environmental Justice in the Anthropocene: From Unjust Presents to Just Futures" available now for pre-order for June 2021 (see book link below).
