Bio
Trained in the United States and France, I am a sociologist working on the topics of environmental policy, public opinion, and the politics of climate change. My precise areas of expertise concern water supply, urbanism along coasts and in deserts, and technological innovation.
Currently, I am an Ocean Nexus Fellow at the University of Washington’s Evans School of Public Policy & Governance.
My current research projects deal with the following themes:
(1) Inequalities surrounding climate adaptation infrastructure.
(2) The modularity of technological forms and the ideology of techno-solutionism.
(3) Developing precise analytical and policy tools concerning future resource production and consumption practices.
