Current Research
My research interest is the valuation of forest ecosystem services and how those values are impacted by changes in vegetation due to natural/man-made disturbances and/or changes in climate conditions. Current research focuses on the economic values people and communities derive from forests, such as recreation, water quality and quantity, and carbon sequestration. Other research interests are fire economics (efficient management of wildfire prevention and suppression efforts) and understanding the social and economic barriers of underrepresented communities to outdoor recreation.
