I am an Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Kettering University, where I teach and research across climate change and climate resilience, ecocriticism, and futures studies.

I am also the Principal Investigator of “Climate Resilient Flint: Building Community-Driven Climate Resilience through Hyperlocal Science-to-Civics Learning in Flint, MI,” (climateresilientflint.com) a climate literacy project in partnership with Flint community organizations and funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Environmental Literacy Program (Award Number: NA22SEC0080008). In March 2022, I completed an environmental resilience consultancy project for “Building Research Capacity for Sustainable Water and Food Security in Sub-Saharan Africa” (BRECcIA), a multi-national grant project spearheaded by the University of Southampton, U.K.

I teach lower- and upper-level courses in ecocriticism, environmental justice, and futures studies.
