I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of South Carolina. I received my PhD in political science from the University of Utah, where I also completed a Masters of Public Administration. My research interests are at the intersection of public policy and policing, and include body-worn cameras and use-of-force. I research at the nexus of policing, policy, and technology, with a specific interest in use-of-force and body-worn cameras. I have over twenty peer-reviewed publications on these and related topics, and my peer-reviewed work has been published in the top general interest journals of both criminal justice and public administration. I teach criminal justice, policy, and statistical courses at both the undergradaute and graduate level. In my statistical courses, we primarily focus on R. I especially love teaching students the beauty of RMarkdown and the tidyverse, and the varied ways to communicate in those contexts. I was recently selected as a Law Enforcement Advancing Data and Science (LEADS) academic by the National Institute of Justice. Previously, have have been selected as an American Society of Public Administration Founders' Fellow (2018), and a doctoral fellow of the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences (2020/2021).
