My Research

Intimate Partner Violence Shelters

Exploring Accessibility

My current research focus is on accessibility within IPV/DV Shelters. My co-author, Dr. Radscheda Nobles, and I are working on several papers related to accessibility in shelters. We are in the middle of surveying regional shelters across 6 states and analyzing publically available information regarding what barriers to access exist.

Department of Veteran's Affairs and Dissertation

My dissertation focused on exploring a benefit deficit created by the Department of Veteran's Affairs for veterans. This project is something I am still passionate about as I work on exploring new avenues of data anlysis using ArcGIS.

CryptoKitties

One of the projects I am working on this year is looking at cryptocurrency as an extension of capitalism. Specifically, the gamification of currency through avenues such as cryptokitties.

Religiosity

I am interested in continuing working on a paper that explores religiosity's impact on persistance and desistance from crime over the life course. I am still looking for an appropriate data set to continue this work.

Animal Cruelty

My current research includes working with Dr. Garland White on animal cruelty and domestic violence links

Music

Previously, I have explored themes within number one songs in the popular music genres of country and rap
