Assistant Professor of Culture, Literature, and Media
B.A. (Speech and Theatre) Albany State University; M.A.T. (Middle Grades Education and English) Armstrong Atlantic State University; Ph.D. (Communication, Media, and Society) University of Southern Mississippi.
My research areas include media representation, focusing on people of color, women, and individuals with disabilities; hashtag activism; and protest music. I am particularly interested in how media shapes and reflects societal narratives, the role of marginalized voices in these conversations, and how celebrities, particularly rappers and influencers, leverage their social media platforms to advocate for causes, reshape narratives, or reinforce existing ones.
