Research.
My research contributes to the field of land-change science and addresses the pressing issues like climate change, food security, and environmental management.
I pursed an interdisciplinary PhD at Brown University through the Institute at Brown for Environment and Society. I was co-advised by Dr. Jack Mustard, Professor of Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences, and Dr. Leah VanWey, Professor of Sociology.
I collaborate with economists, sociologists, and ecologists to analyze the regional socioeconomic and environmental drivers and consequences of land-use change. My skillset includes a strong foundation in earth sciences, specifically remote sensing, but I am also capable of integrating tools and methods from other disciplines to analyze complex land-use change dynamics.
As a Neukom Institute Postdoctoral Fellow I am working with Dr. Jonathan Winter and Dr. Jonathan Chipman to integrate accurate land cover maps into a regional climate model to understand how changes in land cover affect regional climate in Brazil.
Having lived in Providence, Rhode Island for five years and enjoyed all Narragansett Bay has to offer, I am also planning on beginning a project looking into the drivers of changes in water quality and trophic dynamics in Narragansett Bay.
