Adjunct Professor of Environmental Communications, Tulane University My work intersects with Cultural Studies, Science Studies, and Environmental History. My dissertation looks at the effect of extractive thinking and power on coastal louisiana. I investigate how certain practices are naturalized through technical discourses upheld by the state’s political economy. I have developed a genealogy of extraction that explicates the role of science and technology in naturalizing industrial practices that have exhausted the region’s natural resources, while creating conditions for intervention that rationalizes those practices. I am a graduate of Tulane University and the University of California Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism. I also hold a master’s in creative writing from Eastern Michigan University, where I began transitioning from journalism to teaching.
