Professor, Geography I am an urban geographer interested in concrete strategies for social and environmental justice. My longest project has focused on urban climate justice and resisting climate apartheid. More recently, my work has expanded to include housing justice in the "tech city" and racial justice in the wake of settler-colonial urbanization and higher education. I focus on North American cities and utilize community engaged research methods when possible. UGA is located on the Indigenous territories of Muscogee-Creek, Cherokee, and Chickasaw Peoples upon which I teach, work and live; further I acknowledge the enslaved peoples, primarily of African descent, whose labor built much of the University of Georgia.
