About | I am an interdisciplinary scholar at the intersection of environmental policy and governance, political science, and water resources engineering. My current research focuses on the governance of international freshwater resources. I work to improve the management of transboundary water quality and climate change adaptation through better understanding of governance processes and outcomes in North American borderlands. My methods draw on social, political, economic and environmental qualitative and quantitative data with the goal of making more robust causal connections between institutional design, policy decisions, and environmental outcomes. |
