She has a background in Environmental and Resource Management from the University of British Columbia (Canada) specializing in disaster vulnerability and post-disaster recovery. Her MSc thesis focused on measuring post-disaster coastal-community recovery and included a case study of the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
