I am an associate professor of Geography at the University of Washington in Seattle.  I research race, nature and migrations, with a focus on environmental justice and Latinidades across the Américas. ​I like reading and hiking with my dog more than webinars; you can check out my reading lists on goodreads.

​I am on sabbatical during autumn and spring quarters this year to get some writing done. In Winter 2021, I will teach undergraduate courses on Abolition Geographies and Environmental Justice. ​​If you are applying to UW's geography graduate program (MA/PhD), please look over my advising page and then write me an email.

I live and work on the lands and waters of the Salish Sea: the dxʷdəwʔabš (Duwamish), Muckleshoot, spuyaləpabš (Puyallup), dxʷsəqʷəb (Suquamish), and Tulalip nations. I am committed to creating space for these and other Indigenous peoples through my teaching, research, and service.
