RESEARCH AREAS

- Organizational Communication. Specifically, how marginalized bodies are treated in workplace environments and cultures and how our communication can positively or negatively influence these behaviors. I also like to look at how resiliency can occur during or after these toxic work cultures/environments for the marginalized bodies involved in said experiences and what communication can help transform these environments.
- Identity and Autoethnography. I am interested in communicating our identities through an autoethnographic approach to understand better my own and others' marginalized voices and bodies in dominant spaces.
- Communication Pedagogy. More specifically, I am interested in the way instructors communicate their pedagogical practices for colleagues to transform their teaching experiences and transform students' learning experiences.
