Using ethnographic research methods, I collaborated with the organization Earthworks to conduct a community assessment on the health issues related to the air quality in Karnes County, Texas, an oil and gas community.

This research is going to be used to inform the community and develop strategies to empower community members in improving their environmental conditions.
