Welcome!
I’m so glad you’re here! My research, writing, and photography explore the interwoven threads of culture, history, and ecology that create environmental narratives in the American West. Currently, I work to share a more holistic story of Utah Lake, the center of Utah Valley. I’m a PhD candidate in environmental communication at the University of Utah. I hold an MS in Environmental Humanities from the University of Utah. I am also the drector of public outreach for Conserve Utah Valley.
