Get in Touch

The absolute best way to reach me is by email. I do not regularly check social media DMs.

If your are a prospective student or someone seeking mentorship, please include a couple sentences about what your interests are and why you're reaching out to me. I get a lot of emails and I would greatly appreciate the additional information so that I can respond more effectively.

Follow Me

Prior to the Muskification of Twitter, I was very active on academic Twitter. I'm still recovering. While I figure it out, you can follow me in these places. If I settle somewhere, I'll drop a pinned post in each of them.

I live and work in Texas. If you are wondering why I haven't made a statement about [fill in your choice of topic here] recently on my social media, then read the text of Texas Senate Bill 18 that was adopted into law in 2023. You can likely surmise my position on most issues from the extensive corpus of my online presence. If not, I'm happy to talk off social media and university email. While I firmly beleive in the importance of talking about issues of power, oppression, and inequality publicly, I also understand that I have more ways to exercise my power than on social media—most of which are more impactful.
