Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my website.

I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in political science at the University of Rochester, and I will be joining the faculty of the University of New Orleans in August of 2008.  I specialize in American politics, comparative politics, and political methodology.  I am particularly interested in issues of representation and the study of religion and politics.  I focus on theory-driven empirical research. 

I hope that you find this site to be a useful source of information about myself, my areas of specialization, and political science in general.  Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.

Thanks for stopping by!
