She is currently writing a book titled Inheriting a New Earth as well as working on an edited volume on eco-pedagogy and environmental activism in the classroom. She teaches classes on environmental justice, food and the environment, environmental literature, post-apocalyptic and posthuman narratives, and race in the twentieth century. Teachers who would like to implement environmental activist pedagogy in their classrooms are welcome to contact her at Iowa State University; she is eager to learn how eco-pedagogy translates into high school classrooms and welcomes opportunities for collaboration.
