I am presently a PhD student in the Department of Sociology at Duke University
in Durham, NC. Religion and race are my two major interests. In religion, I am exploring the varied ways in which religion influences and is influenced by socio-cultural factors. I am interested how gender, sexuality, race, and class impact lived religion. I am also interested in how churches are constructed in a racialized environment and how that influences the ways in which religion is expressed. On race, I am interested in the process of racial identity formation, the differential outcomes of minority groups, and the translation of sociological research into concrete public outcomes. The thought of W.E.B. DuBois is of particular interest to me.
