cultural sociologist and scholar ​of new media, mass media & extreme violence
Picture
​I'm a Professor of Sociology at
​West Chester University of Pennsylvania.

A sociologist of culture and media, I mainly
apply ​symbolic interactionist and social constructionist perspectives to studies in three primary areas: (1) the sociocultural context of violence, ​(2) mass media effects, and (3) the relationship between new media technologies and sociocultural change. ​I earned my Ph.D. in sociology at the University of Tennessee and M.A. in journalism and mass communication at the University of Georgia's Grady College. Before academia, I worked as a print and online journalist for nearly a decade.
