Bio
Edit

Troy is an Adjunct Faculty at William and Mary. His research broadly addresses two major themes. The first theme relates to “Web 3.0” technologies (AI/ML, Blockchain, IoT) and their impacts on food systems, from production and consumption to entrepreneurship. The second concerns the politics and policies, directly and indirectly, impacting food systems. Troy is particularly interested in designing and evaluating Web 3.0 software that supports data sovereignty, sustainable food recommendations, sustainable food supply chains, Indigenous food sovereignty, and sustainable food enterprises. Additionally, he is interested in exploring how the politics of Indigenous sovereignty impacts Indigenous peoples' ability to address conservation and economic issues.
