I joined the sociology department at Loyola University Chicago in the fall of 2010 while completing my dissertation at Florida State University.  Prior to joining the faculty I taught at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida, as well as Florida State University in Tallahassee.  My research interests are in the area of collective behavior and social movements.  I am especially interested in how politicians and activists use emotions to drum up public support for their policies and causes.  Additionally, I am interested in how recent technological advances (e.g. social media and the internet) have changed the way movements mobilize, organize and recruit constituents.
