About Me

I am a research senior associate in the College of Arts and Sciences at The Ohio State University.  With expertise in the environmental social sciences, I work directly with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources to conduct human dimensions research needed to inform fisheries management. 

​

My broader research program focuses on supporting aquatic stewardship at scales ranging from the individual actions of recreational anglers to national-level conservation policy. I use both quantitative and qualitative methods to understand how individuals value the environment and how these values can be sustained for future generations.  Interdisciplinary collaboration throughout the research process is a key component of my work.
