Associate Professor of Geography, University of Tennessee
My research interests focus on understanding spatial patterns and processes of racial/ethnic residential intermixing, poverty and inequality. Currently, I am examining the influence of contemporary housing market elements on residential choices that may be impacting segregation at local neighborhoods, using a mixed-method approach.
I use statistical, cartographic, and qualitative tools to understand the nuanced processes operating at local scales in contemporary urban spaces that define various residential mosaics. My teaching and research interests include Urban, Social, Economic, Cultural, Population and Regional Geography of North American (and World) with a focus on Race, Ethnicity and Unequal Development.
