Graduate Research Topic
My current research pursuits are transdisciplinary and include promoting the broad participation of stakeholders in environmental decision making. I am particularly interested in human impacts to coastal systems with a focus on habitat restoration and migratory sea-run fish conservation. With my scholarship, I aim to help inform and support watershed management actions that link measures of human well-being and fisheries.
