Biography
I am a political and environmental geographer interested in questions related to water governance, borders, and political and cultural ecology. My work investigates how flow resources, such as water, are governed across political jurisdictions and at multiple scales. My work also seeks to link ecosystem health with human health through models of water security and adaptive management.
I have published in a wide range of journals including the Annals of the Association of American Geography, Geoforum, Water Alternatives, Water Resources Management and AREA. I also aim to translate my work to a wider audience and have published numerous policy reports, briefing papers, and book chapters. In addition, I have three book projects underway, dealing with issues related to transboundary water governance, the politics of scale, and Indigenous governance of shared waters.
