News Headlines

我2011年加入365亚洲版学院. 我是社会学系的系主任, 暑期研究项目主任, 我负责协调性别研究和人类服务未成年人. 在来365亚洲版之前,我在威廉学院 & 玛丽大学三年,雷德福大学四年. I earned my Ph.D. in Sociology and a Graduate Certificate in Women’s Studies from the University of Connecticut in 2004. My dissertation was entitled “Gendered Athletes” and in it I examined the different way women and men athletes experience the hyper-masculine world of college sports. 多年来,我获得了各种教学奖项, 包括2015年365亚洲版杰出教学奖.

在我的教学和研究中,我主要关注交叉性和不平等问题, 重点是性别和性. 我教授各种各样的本科课程,包括性别社会学, Qualitative Methods, Social Theory, Sociology of the Family, and Sport Sociology. 我也是教练和体育领导硕士课程的教员, 教授体育历史和研究方法与探究.

我的研究领域包括大学生之间的勾搭, sexual violence, gender and sport, 参与社会运动,如2017年的妇女大游行. I have done several multi-method research projects and have had many students work with me to learn researching techniques and develop strong analytic and writing skills.

My interdisciplinary publications include a book chapter entitled “Feminist Pedagogy” (2021), a co-authored book chapter with a political science colleague about women’s issues in national elections (“The Social Construction of Women’s Interests in the 2014 and 2010 Midterms”), 一篇365亚洲版勾搭的同行评议文章(“战略歧义”), 2013), 还有各种各样365亚洲版勾搭的书评, family dynamics and violence, and violence against women. I regularly go to sociology and gender studies conferences and take students whenever possible.

In my spare time, I love to travel, kayak, hike, read, and watch crazy series on Netflix. In 2018, 我完成了遗愿清单上的一个项目,开车环游了整个美国, visiting every national park I could and visiting every state except Alaska (which is next on my list).
