ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE
​
​

I am an Associate Professor of Political Science (with tenure) and Department Chair at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. I earned my Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2013. I regularly teach classes on American government and politics, Congress, public policy, and urban politics. Recently, I developed an undergraduate political science lab, where I work with students to conduct research. Some of our work was recently published, which you can read here. My research interests include voting behavior, campaigns and elections, political participation, public opinion, and political psychology. To date, I have published over 30 peer-reviewed articles in journals such as Political Research Quarterly, Political Behavior, American Politics Research, and a wide range of other outlets. You can see my published research and working papers by clicking the Research tab above. My Google Scholar page is here. Some of my research has been highlighted by The Monkey Cage, HuffPost, Vox, CityLab, The Washington Post, The Associated Press, Governing Magazine, The Knight Foundation, The Atlantic, Public Radio, and USA Today. I have worked with the Knight Foundation on issues related to civic engagement and with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation on political campaigns. In 2018, I co-organized the first ever TEDx UW-Green Bay. Every so often, I contribute to local news outlets and work to inform policymakers about ways to increase political participation. I'm currently on the editorial board for Politics and the Life Sciences and the Journal of Social and Political Psychology and recently co-guest edited a special issue of Personality and Individual Differences on personality and politics.
