Weekly Wave: The WRRC Welcomes Associate Director Jamie McEvoy

The WRRC is thrilled to introduce Jamie McEvoy as its new Associate Director! McEvoy received her PhD in Geography and Development from the University of Arizona in 2013. She previously worked as an associate professor of geography at Montana State University with a teaching and research program focused on water governance, climate adaptation, and equity. She has published on topics including participatory water planning, ecological drought, flood risk communication, desalination, climate adaptation, and nature-based strategies. McEvoy looks forward to building relationships with interested partners across the state to address Arizona’s water issues and is excited about her new role in UArizona Extension and serving the land-grant mission of the University. She is also thrilled to be back in Tucson, where she met her husband over a decade ago. After enduring ten years of Montana winters, they are both eager to thaw out and enjoy the great diversity of culture, art, food, and landscapes that this region offers. Welcome to the WRRC team, Jamie!
