I study the patterns of alcohol use, harms from drinking, and the multiple pathways to recovery. I’m an associate professor at Santa Clara University. Black Lives Matter ✊ Trans lives matter 🏳️‍⚧️
It's been a while since I've been here! ⌛ The last several months have underscored the importance of community, both in person and online, so I'm making a point to be more active in both realms this year. L'union fait la force!

As a final nod to my time in Iowa, my last publication was a collaboration with a student about changes in alcohol use during the first year of the COVID pandemic. Open access!
