I received my PhD in Anthropology, and most of my research has been conducted on Rosebud Reservation, South Dakota, home of the Sicangu Lakota or Rosebud Sioux. In February 2023, I began collaborative research on the Hoopa Valley Tribe in northern California, which has been in a 7 decade struggle to address the loss of fish in the Trinity River whose water has been diverted to irrigate farms in the Central Valley.
