This project investigates the spatial uncertainty reported my men who have sex with men associated with locations of HIV risk and care. This project aims to quantify the degree to which uncertainty can impact identified hotspots of risk and care, and if analysis is unstable given the degree of uncertainty, this project aims to generate methods to account for uncertainty in hotspot analysis aiming to produce probabilistic hotspots. In colaboration with the mSTUDY at UCLA school of public health.

This project aims to produce generalizable population inferences examine the association between housing insecurity and structural stigma among men who have sex with men. This further project aims to improve generalizability of results by constructing weights within convince survey samples (American Men's Internet Survey) via weighting along demographic stratification based on probabilistic survey samples (Behvaioral Risk Factor Survialence Survey).

Survey project aiming to understand wildfire adaption behaviors and risk perception in Santa Barbara County in collaboration with the Wildfire Resilience Initiative at UCSB, UCSB Geography Professor Stuart Sweeney and CUNY Research Scientist Sophia Arabadjis. Surveying along stratified samples of Firewise/Non-firewise community parcels and parcels within/outside of prior recent burn scars with additional responses via in person survey distribution at community events.
