Professional Summary
I am a PhD student in Sociology at the University of Cincinnati. I hold a MA in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies from the University of Cincinnati and a BA in Sociology from Bowling Green State University with minors in Sexuality Studies and Political Science.
I study queer men's sexual identities, communities, and practices as well as the social organization of desire. In my current work, I explore queer men's cruising strategies and the surveillance and regulation of public sex.
In my free time, I enjoy reading good books and watching bad TV.
