Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnne Pisor is an interdisciplinary social scientist, entrepreneur, and assistant professor who studies cooperation, risk management, and human factors in adaptation and natural resource governance. With 15 years across social, behavioral, and evolutionary sciences and 14 years in higher education, she blends rigorous data and UX-style research with curriculum design, program leadership, and graduate training. She leads cross-sector teams and has translated basic science into applied impact—founding and serving as CEO/CSO of an early-stage climate-focused startup while directing the Human Sociality Lab. Her fieldwork spans the US, East Africa, and South America, and she routinely connects academia with industry and nonprofits to accelerate practical solutions.

Outside work she’s an avid runner, cook, and curious parent learning about infrastructure with her preschooler.
