Research Interests:
My research interests are largely concerned with pro-environmental behavior in relation to role identities, social constraints, and the development of more inclusive and valid measures of pro-environmental behavior. My past research has focused on agricultural socio-ecological system interactions, including pro-environmental land management practices and climate change perceptions among farmers. In the future, I hope to study public awareness, perception, and attitudes regarding military proliferation and environmental impact.
