I am an Assistant Professor of Public Administration at the University of Nevada, Reno. My research focuses on the intersection of local government organizations, civic engagement, and technology. 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. Previously I worked in local government and helped to co-found a public engagement software company, Public Input.
I live in Reno and Seattle 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!
