Research/Creative Interests

I am interested in questions around belonging, mattering, and community in educational spaces. I explore aspects of social justice, critical pedagogy, and democratic skill development through critical communities and intentional learning environments. I am excited about nontraditional research approaches and ways in which researchers can authentically engage individuals and communities in an action-oriented approach.

What types of “data” do you commonly use?

I am primarily a qualitative researcher and generally utilize methods like observations, critical discourse analyses, interviews, and participatory storytelling.

What types of collaborations are you open to?

I am open to any and all collaborations.

Student Qualifications

  • I really enjoy working with students from all backgrounds on research projects.
  • I like helping students develop and implement their own research as well as involving them in existing projects I have.
  • I particularly enjoy working on research projects that are action-oriented, community engaged, and focus on social justice.
