Hello

I am an Instructor of Sociology and the Rector of the Humanities and Social Sciences Residential College (HSSRC) at Louisiana State University. On campus, I teach in person and online courses, mentor undergraduate research, and advise first year students majoring in fields within the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. In the community, I am the coleader and cofounder of a youth soccer program (est. 2015) and an ESL program (est. 2022). Through LSU's Engaged Citizen's Program, many of my students are able to earn college credit by serving alongside me in the community and gaining applied experience in their major fields. 

All of my work in the classroom and the community revolves around bringing people together from diverse backgrounds and intentionally structuring curriculum and programing to facilitate empathy on the path to achieving individual and collective goals. My three favorite places are the classroom, the soccer field, and the dinner table. I believe larger-scale and sustainable community change often blossoms from experiences in these micro spaces.
