Research Interests
My research interests are at the intersection of engineering and justice, informed by interdisciplinary approaches. In my Ph.D., I evaluated and designed effective treatment technology for arsenic-contaminated drinking water in small, low-income communities in California, using both engineering and social science methods. At CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ, I am leading a pilot project to investigate the resilience, sustainability, and equity of infrastructures of justice. As part of my work in the RISE IRT, I help plan a seminar series and support IRT affiliates with proposals. I am open to mentoring undergraduate and graduate students. I am also happy to discuss research or IRT ideas with students, research associates, and faculty.
