Rebecca is a Master's student in the Environmental Studies program at University of Colorado Boulder. Her research interests lie in understanding how natural resource managers and other stakeholders make decisions around natural hazard mitigation and climate adaptation, and specifically the usability of climate science in adaptation planning. She also has a strong interest in public participation in environmental governance and decision making. She is a graduate research assistant within the Western Water Assessment, where she will focus on understanding how water managers in Western Colorado utilize information about snow pack to manage and prepare for drought.
