I support several of Pathways’ (formerly Silvestrum) local and national climate adaptation and resilience projects, through an equity and technical lens. Projects range from the Port of San Francisco’s Waterfront Resilience Program, where we work with the public, several City agencies, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to address coastal and inland hazards along 7.5 miles of the waterfront, to groundbreaking groundwater research in the Bay Area. I also actively participate in several community engagement efforts to raise awareness on climate hazards, build community trust, and uplift youth engagement.

In this role, I serve as a technical contributor for both the Coastal Effects Chapter and Blue Carbon Focus Box for the 5th National Climate Assessment, a Congressionally mandated, quadrennial effort. The National Climate Assessment is the U.S. Government's premier resource for articulating the risks posed to the Nation by climate change, as well as what is being and can be done to minimize those risks.
