I am an Assistant Professor of Public Administration at the University of Nevada, Reno. My research focuses on the intersection of organizations and technology through the lenses of local government, Human Resources, and civic engagement. I teach courses in the Master of Public Administration program and undergraduate political science curriculum.
I help to coordinate the Nevada Leadership Program (NLP) in the University Center for Economic Development and lead the Local Governance Lab.
I live in Reno with my partner, Nate, and our dogs, Rainier, and Walter. I am a proud civic geek who has served on several local government boards and neighborhood groups. Let's have a Zoom chat!
