As an English girl now living in Idaho, I often get asked 'How did you end up here?'
My peregrination involved new landscapes, rugged trails, and adventure. Here's my story!

Absolutely incredible visuals by @loelebee.bsky.social, with words by @dwharton.bsky.social, showing how fire-stricken suburbs can rebuild safer. Most understandable explainer I've seen on this topic: www.latimes.com/california/s...

Stoked to have contributed to this work along with @trevorcaughlin.bsky.social led by @pyroscientist.bsky.social! She demonstrates how to integrate data sources to make maps that identify various built infrastructure types and improve upon existing datasets spatially, temporally, and thematically.
I am excited to share our new paper on mapping built infrastructure using remote sensing data integration and open-source cloud computing.

There are THREE! Count em THREE memoirs coming out in 2025/2026 by women/non-binary folks who have worked as wildland firefighters or hotshots. Here they are, for those interested in pre-orders or learning more about the authors.
