I am an environmental anthropologist with additional training in geography and forestry & ecology. My interests are in the local social impacts of global environmental problems, and the distributional consequences of environmental policies, particularly with regard to biodiversity conservation, ecosystem services, and climate change. I primarily do fieldwork in Vietnam and Myanmar.
