I am a physical geographer interested in using geospatial tools (geographic information systems and remote sensing) to study environmental change. My research program is generally focused on topics within soil geography and biogeography. Currently, however, I am part of an interdisciplinary and international team of researchers studying the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in pathogens causing upper respiratory illness in southwestern Uganda.  I have also become increasingly interested in critical GIS, in particular the erosion of locational privacy.
