Anthropology: the evolutionary & behavioral ecology of humans, historical ecology, the ecology of capitalism & markets, the archaeology of North & Central America

I am a broadly-trained anthropologist and ecologist interested in how people interact with their environments, both sustainably and unsustainably. In my research, I take an explicitly quantitiative and evolutionary approach to explore how human demography, economics, politics, and culture have shaped the relationships we have with other species and how these relationships could change in the future.
