My primary research interest is the use of green roof technology for vegetable production and how that impacts green roof benefits. Other research interests include carbon sequestration and storm water mitigation of green roofs, salt tolerance of common green roof species, the potential or existing buildings to be retrofitted for green roofs, green infrastructure, and urban agriculture.
Specialties: green roofs, vegetable production on green roofs
