I manage the daily operation of INSTAAR’s peer-reviewed academic journal Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, an international open access journal publishing interdisciplinary research on cold region environments.

In 2023, I completed my PhD in Communication Studies from the University of Utah, where I researched contemporary transnational activism and political movements. In addition to AAAR, I work as the managing editor of Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies. In my free time, I like to hike, ski, and see live music.

 

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research

INSTAAR’s international open-access journal publishes interdisciplinary research on cold regions environments

AAAR primarily covers environmental science from modern to paleo timescales, with an emphasis on climate change in mountain and high latitude regions. Topics include ecology, climatology, glaciology, and biogeochemistry. Articles are peer reviewed. The journal is online only, with 310,000 views/downloads in 2020. INSTAAR staff select editors and reviewers and control content; Taylor and Francis Online publishes and hosts the journal.

AAAR also publishes a series of science briefs called “Arctic Answers,” which are written by science experts to answer policy-relevant questions about the Arctic and climate change impacts.
