I am an applied cultural anthropologist and professor at the University of South Florida. I focus on telling untold stories. My super power—laughter, curiosity, and a love of learning.
Wow! 20 years at USF. Started as a tenure track Assistant Professor now full professor and Chair of the department of anthropology. Time flies. Most proud of all the students I have advised and learned from and the many graduates who have gone on to make a difference wherever they are.

Enjoy Fat Tuesday (3/4/2025) and the Mardi Gras wind down. “…Mardi Gras is the biggest celebration in New Orleans, culminating on Fat Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday. Known for its spectacular parades, vibrant costumes, and deep-rooted traditions.” Anyone selling King cake in Tampa? 😊
