I care deeply about nature and environmental justice. In practical terms, I am an expert facilitator and convenor, strategic advisor, independent evaluator, team leader, and collaborative researcher. 

I’ve conducted ecological field work in tropical forests and mangroves, European natural and modified landscapes and rivers, and high desert and canyon ecosystems in the US Southwest. I’ve implemented social science fieldwork with land managers, farmers, fishers, tribal leaders, policy makers and funders, managers, and scientists working on sustainability around the world.

I’ve applied my expertise to diverse issue areas and solution spaces including: biodiversity conservation, climate change, sustainability, poverty alleviation, climate adaptation, food security, sustainable agriculture, ocean health, environmental education, environmental equity and justice, organizational effectiveness, social policy and community programs, and technology for good.
