I am passionate about sustainability and equality issues in the built environment. Important themes for me include ecological planning and economic theory, as well as social justice. I am theory and communication oriented practitioner but also an activist. My aim is to integrate perspectives from the theory and history of urban and regional planning into ecological economics. Motivation for my research and activism comes from the hope of contributing to anticapitalism, anticolonialism and antipatriarchy. Planners have many attributes that are wasted for never ending seeking for economic growth. I believe that those attributes should be harnessed for the common good and for increasing equality and environmental sustainability. In my doctoral dissertation, I continue exploring the dynamics of rural-urban metabolism - started in my master's thesis.
