Scholarly and Professional Achievements

I am most interested in social and cultural history, particularly when it comes to ideas of race, class, and gender. Much of my research looks at masculinity, childhood, sport, and consumerism. I am currently working on a book that uses the bicycle to look at American culture. 

Personal Interests

I grew up near the foothills of Appalachia in Kentucky. After moving to attend college at U.K., I became heavily involved in skateboarding and the local punk/indie/hardcore music scene in Lexington, KY. I then moved to Louisville for law school and became an avid cyclist. When I'm not playing with my two daughters, I still like to ride as much as I can.
