Welcome to my website!
I am an Associate Professor in the University of Oregon's School of Planning, Public Policy and Management and the Director of the Masters of Nonprofit Management (MNM) program. I teach in both the Masters of Nonprofit Management and Masters of Public Administration (MPA) degree programs, along with our undergraduate degree program in Planning, Public Policy and Management and our minor in Nonprofit Administration.
I received my Ph.D. from the University of Southern California's Price School of Public Policy in 2014. My research interests include nonprofit management and governance, the organization and formation of interest/advocacy organizations, the political economy of the nonprofit sector, charitable giving and experimental research on collective action and fundraising activities.
During the 2024-2025 academic year, I am also serving as the Vice-President and President-elect of the University of Oregon Senate and the chair of the Task Force on Ethical Investing, Purchasing and Contracts.
