About me

I study social theory, sociology of religion, women’s studies, methods, and historical sociology. My research is on contemporary changes in the European religious landscape, taking into account perspectives deriving from critical theory, feminist thought, and postcolonial thought.

I joined the sociology program in 2006 after working for a year as a program intern in a nongovernmental organization in Lilongwe, Malawi, and as a research assistant at the Social Science Research Center in Berlin, Germany. I was raised in Bonn, the former capital of West Germany.

After teaching at Hunter and Queens, I now work in the CUNY Central Office conducting education research.

I’m also the guy that maintains this website, so if it looks strange, blame me (or better yet, offer to take over this job from me!).
