As a reformatted #Introduction, I'm on the global security faculty at Johns Hopkins University, and work on #Energy #ClimateSecurity #EnvironmentalSecurity #DisInfo #Cyber and #Ukraine. I've bounced around from #Kosovo to #Alaska to #Virginia in recent years, and in my spare time am a #TTRPG author. I'm a cyclist, a tea-steeper, and a cow-whisperer.
