About

I am an environmental social scientist who is originally from New Jersey in the United States. I have lived in several states across the eastern U.S. conducting work in community engagement in environmental conservation and sustainability. I have expertise in motivations for environmental stewardship; equity-inclusion-accessibility in conservation; informal STEM education; sustainability, and survey methodology. My research interests include motivations for environmental stewardship; justice, equity, belonging, diversity, accessibility, & inclusivity in environmental conservation; effects of informal environmental education on community engagement and volunteering; community-wide applications of renewable energy and natural resources, and sustainability; climate change awareness & attitudes in specific populations; & survey methodology and experimentation.
