Haley Albano
Haley Albano is a Ph.D. student and doctoral fellow focused in the ecological dimensions of nutritional anthropology, where she is situated in the interplay between environmental nutrition and cultural relationships with food. Her research examines the impacts of transition to commodified diets in Arctic and Atlantic Canada, specifically focusing on the phenomenology and affective political ecology of obesity and metabolic risk. She comes into the program with a BA in Anthropology from Bridgewater State University and an MS in Ethics and Public Policy from Suffolk University in Boston. She is broadly interested in the northern landscape, discourse and praxis change, food sovereignty, and nutritional futures.
