I'm a Meigs Distinguished Teaching Professor of Sociology at the University of Georgia. My research projects focus on systems of criminal punishment and their effects on social life.
I have published my research in top peer-reviewed journals in sociology, criminology, public health, social work, and geography. For more, see my Google Scholar page.
In the immortal words of Chuck D, I'd like my work to "teach the bourgeois and rock the boulevard." I strive to conduct research that matters for academics, policy makers, and ordinary citizens alike.
I am an award-winning teacher, having received recognition for excellence in undergraduate instruction, research mentoring, creative teaching, and service-learning. I proudly facilitate UGA's first-ever Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program course in partnership with the Clarke County Jail.
