About Me

Picture
I am an Assistant Professor of Environmental Science and Policy in Chapman University's Environmental Science and Policy program. I received my Ph.D at the University of California, Santa Barbara's Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, and am a former USIP Peace Scholar Fellow.

Shortages in environmental goods and services like clean air and water are a persistent barrier to safeguarding human well-being around the world. My research both investigates the political effects of these shortages and asks how we might design institutions that strengthen the government's capacity to provide environmental goods and services.

For example, I am authoring a manuscript which demonstrates how air pollution undermines the prospects for mass mobilization in the United States. My new book project, Patrolling the Commons: Peacekeeping and Conflict in a Climate-changed World, explores how United Nations peacekeeping personnel may mitigate the destabilizing effects of climate change on human security in conflict-affected settings.


​I have been fortunate enough to publish research in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory and International Peacekeeping.
