Her most recent project centered on the animals rescued from the Fukushima evacuation zone following the T艒hoku Disaster of 2011. Locally, she engages in numerous academic and advocacy projects exploring and aiding the multifaceted relationships people have with the animals in their lives, from the pigs they eat to the cats they love.
