I received my PhD from the Department of Environmental Science Policy and Management at the University of California Berkeley (2015) and have a Masters in Integrative Bio-sciences from the University of Oxford (2008), where I was an Inlaks Scholar. In Spring 2019, I was invited to the Alba Viotto Visiting Professorship in Sociology at the University of Geneva, and was a visiting professorial fellow at the Sustainable Consumption Institute at the University of Manchester.
In a time of exacerbating inequality, enduring poverty and widespread climate disruption, I firmly believe that we cannot talk about sustainability or decarbonization without a serious consideration of its intersections with social justice, equity and oppression. I take a situated, relational and intersectional approach in my research, collaborating with scholars in critical geography, sociology, environmental science and policy studies, and with community organizations, policy-makers and practitioners.
