I am a cultural anthropologist, political ecologist, and legal scholar studying intersections of the environment and economy in this time of climate crisis. I study people's relationships with the landscapes of which they are a part, including how they interact with, understand, value, and govern them. I am particularly interested in efforts to restore landscapes, make nature valuable, and create "green economies," as well as in related issues of environmental justice and land rights.
