- About Me
I hold a PhD in Urban Education Policy from Cleveland State University as well as a JD from Rutgers Law School. My Master’s degrees are in education research, evaluation and assessment (M.Ed., Cleveland State University) and English (M.A., Kent State University). My research approaches include historical case study and critical ethnography. My main research interests are religious school history, especially Catholic school history, policy and leadership in Cleveland, Ohio. I am also interested in academic advising for the “first gen” college student and meeting the advising needs of multi-identified autistic/exceptional learner in urban school/higher ed settings.
