Research Portfolio

My research incorporates visual, environmental, and strategic communication. As a common thread, my research explores how people communicate and use media to reduce or reinforce the threat and effects of climate crisis. Recently published projects focus on how news frames public land in relation to power and how alternative communities strategically communicate about climate crisis.

​My dissertation research examined visual communication of wildfire recovery through photo-elicitation interviews with wildland firefighters and local news coverage of recovery from the 2018 Camp Fire in California.

I have co-authored research on CEO Activism in Ghana, youth use of public transportation, and the well-being of LGBTQ+ youth and families.​
