I'm an Assistant Professor of Criminology and Justice Studies at the California State University, Northridge (CSUN). Broadly, my interests include: gender and sexualities; juvenile delinquency and justice; peer and social networks; and social inequality and the life course.

My current research examines the relationship between sexual orientation and gender on crime and delinquency from adolescence through adulthood. I also teach undergraduate-level classes in juvenile justice, introductory statistics, criminological theory, peer mentoring, and applied methods.


I earned a B.A. in Health and Societies from the University of Pennsylvania in addition to a M.A. in Criminology and a Ph.D. in Sociology from the Pennsylvania State University.
