I am Interim QEP Coordinator for Experiential Learning at Valdosta State University and Professor of Sociology. I also co-chair the VSU College of Humanities and Social Sciences lecture series and serve as secretary for the Social Science Division of the Council on Undergraduate Research.  I co-direct VSU's Ecuador Study Abroad program, which partners with the Universidad San Francisco de Quito.

I received my Ph.D. in Sociology in 2011 from The Ohio State University. My research focuses on the social structural factors that shape individual attitudes and behaviors; much of it looks at differences in attitudes cross-nationally and the country-level factors that shape these differences. My current research focuses on factors affecting individual trust in science in the U.S. and cross-nationally; gender and social movements in the Middle East; and the relationship between bicycle and pedestrian rates and health outcomes at the state and regional level.

I regularly teach Research Methods (graduate/undergraduate), Sociological Practice (graduate), Family Inequality (graduate/undergraduate), Applied Sociology (undergraduate), and Sociology of Gender (undergraduate). I have recently taught special topics on Gender & Globalization and the Sociology of Childhood.
