I am a social science researcher focused on political ecology and critical development in India. I am currently a PhD student in the Geography Department at the University of California at Berkeley. I spend a lot of time thinking about so-called peasant fishers, coastal spaces/places, neoliberalism and the ocean. I'm also a dive geek who is semi-militant about bike riding and tree planting.
In 2013 and 2014, I spent 13 months on a Fulbright-Nehru fellowship assigned to an Indian government institute, where I conducted research, formulated methodology and designed a very large-n household survey. Following my Fulbright fellowship, I consulted for environmental and research NGOs — mostly focused on study of rural coastal and marine spaces — until beginning my PhD in August 2016.
I previously earned a master's from American University in global environmental policy and a bachelor's from the University of Illinois in journalism. I have worked as a political and international journalist in the US and abroad. I've also spent significant time teaching, volunteering, bumming, diving and globetrotting.
This blog is a journal of professional observations, bits of work, personal anecdotes, random missives, photos, slice-of-life moments, kitchen experiments, underwater encounters, and tales of travel. I posted most regularly from late 2009 to early 2012. These days it runs in fits and starts.

In July 2009, Adam Jadhav left a comfortable gig in St. Louis to travel the world. He spent much of his time in India with other adventures in Ecuador, Thailand, the UK, Kenya and Madagascar. His time abroad led him to graduate school in Washington, D.C. Since completing his master's, he has entered the world of professional research, with an eye toward fishers in the developing world. This blog is updated semi-regularly with snippets and glimpses of his work, shenanigans and attempts to save the world.
