Some Takeaways from my Time as a PhD Student
Assorted advice, including how tracking your hours can enable greater intentionality
Hello! Starting in August 2025, I will be an Assistant Professor of Geography and a Fellow of CIRES (the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences) at the University of Colorado (CU) Boulder. My research centers on the application of innovative data science methods to environmental health challenges, with an emphasis on identifying pragmatic and just solutions. I prioritize collaborating across disciplines and sectors, teaching and mentoring students, and engaging in science communication and policy efforts.

Here are lists of articles, podcasts, videos, etc. that I intend to continuously update as I come across well-explained, powerful ideas that relate directly to my field(s) of interest. For the most part, these resources are more conversational than technical, and are meant to inspire as well as inform.
