I am a Ph.D. Candidate studying race, religion, organizations, and Du Boisian Sociology. My dissertation explores the relevance of W.E.B. Du Bois' concept of "second-sight" in contemporary Black life.

Research Experience

In addition to my studies, I have served as a research assistant to Dr. Michael O. Emerson (Sociology) and the Black Midwest Initiative (UIC Black Studies), directed by Dr. Terrion Williamson. My research experience includes working on two projects housed in the Center for the Study of Religion and Society (CSRS) at the University of Notre Dame, directed by Dr. Chris Smith and Dr. Kraig Beyerlein. Additionally, I have worked with Dr. Andy Clarno, collecting data that informed the Treatment Not Trauma: Community Engaged Activist Research report in partnership with the Consortium for Community Wellness, and am a team member on an ongoing project with Dr's Amanda E. Lewis and Maria Krysan (Sociology). Formerly, I was the Executive Coordinator of the Carl Spain Center at Abilene Christian University, where I now serve as a research consultant.
