About Julia:
I am a sustainability scientist; I work together with others across disciplines and sectors to find promising solutions to pressing sustainability challenges. My work tends to focus on water and watersheds, but extends into related areas including coastal community resilience and agriculture.
My program of research is increasingly focused in two areas:
- The power of empathy as a lever for transformational system changes
- How to do water governance better – in a more equitable, just way – to support our collective wellbeing now and far into the future
If you are a student interested in working with me: Please ensure your interests align with mine in some way (I welcome creativity) and then send a statement of research interest (i.e., your research aspirations and how they link to my work), and your Curriculum Vitae to me via email.
Please note that I promote any funded student positions actively on LinkedIn. If you send an inquiry about supervision outside of those specific advertised positions, I will not have funding to support them.
