Research

My work supports Indigenous-led transformations in conservation governance and practice, and the possibilities for decolonial change within environmental institutions. My scholarship sits at the intersection of environmental justice, Indigenous Studies, political ecology, and posthumanist feminisms. I am interested in relational, emergent, responsive, and arts-based methodologies.
