Research Interests

My work aims to highlight underrepresented voices in organizational spaces with the goal of improving work environments. Recently, I have investigated the career trajectories of first- and second-generation Latin American immigrants. This work was awarded the Gerald R. Miller Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award, as well as two top papers from the Organizational Communication Division of the National Communication Association. My work has also investigated the impact of social and material resources to the enactment of resilience processes in order to understand various factors that may influence organizational life. I approach research using a variety of mixed methods but specialize in qualitative methods, such as interviewing and photovoice. My current work investigates the organizational experiences of those who feel 鈥渃alled鈥� to serve in a specific occupation.
