I’m a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Geography, where I research the legal and environmental history of water resources and mineral rights in the northern Great Plains. Currently, I’m a Ph.D. Fellow with Midwest Environmental Advocates, a nonprofit environmental law firm where I work with staff attorneys to develop public guides and digital map resources about environmental justice issues across the state of Wisconsin.
I teach courses in legal studies, historical geography, and environmental history and enjoy my work with undergraduate students. Finally, I'm an editor at Edge Effects, a digital magazine of environmental humanities and the primary publication of the UW-Madison Center for Culture, History, and Environment.
As a legal geographer, I aspire to a career in environmental policy. I’m a Virginia transplant to the Upper Midwest, and love to swim and paddle in Wisconsin's many beautiful lakes and rivers.
