Summary

My research broadly focuses on social, human, institutional, and policy dimensions of environmental risks, hazards, and disasters and natural resources management both in the Global South and North. I'm particularly interested in resilience and adaptive capacity of communities to natural hazards (wildfires, floods, and cyclones) and how such capacity is shaped by processes at multiple scales (e.g., spatial, temporal, and functional), levels (e.g., individual, community, and institution).
