About
Where are you/will you be conducting your research/fieldwork?
I work with communities in the Bristol Bay region of Alaska, particularly those surrounding Katmai National Park and Preserve. We work on applied projects that seek to resolve subsistence related issues within bureaucratic and regulatory systems.
What do you do in your downtime? Share something interesting about yourself!
I try to spend most of my free time exploring outside. Living in Anchorage, I love to go out into the Chugach Mountains whenever I can!
