Scholarly Interests
My primary areas of research are gender, (a)sexuality, masculinity, femininity, and inclusion/exclusion. I am particularly interested in the intersection of gender and sexuality. My current research situates asexual individuals (those who experience low/no sexual attraction) as presenting a strategic case sample for examining the relationship between gender and sexuality.
