Short bio

I am associate professor in the School of Policy, Government, and International Affairs at George Mason University, with a joint appointment in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy. I teach courses on environmental policy and data analysis.

My research addresses various aspects of environmental policy, including community-based conservation, natural resource management, 'wicked' environmental problems, and the life histories of US environmental agencies.

I have a PhD in environmental policy from the University of Maryland. Before studying environmental issues, I taught English for more than 20 years in the inner-city alternative public high schools of Albany, NY.
