Current Projects

Resilient Selves

I'm working on a book focusing on how to think about what it means to be a self under rapidly shifting climatic positions. Drawing from research in philosophy, psychology, ecology, and other disciplines, I develop a picture of how we can build resilience as selves and as members of communities.

Just Transition

I am developing a project on just transition in Appalachia. What does life with new forms of energy production look like? How can we insure that more regenerative forms of energy production don't repeat the injustices of the past while preserving human dignity? Such questions are fundamental to many communities, but are perhaps most salient for places like Appalachia.
