About
I am a scholar who researches focuses on the ways groups use rules, norms, and the language of consent and choice. My first book, Consensual Violence: Sex, Sports, and the Politics of Injury (University of California Press 2016), examines how two groups that willingly engage in seemingly violent activities — mixed-martial arts and sexual sadomasochism -- enact elaborate law-like rules to organize themselves and to demonstrate their legitimacy to a broader public. My second book, Help Me Die (forthcoming, Stanford University Press), is a cross-country comparison of assisted death and the ways terminally ill people, their loved ones, and medical professionals navigate laws that proscribe or permit aid-in-dying. I am also a methods junkie! I am interested in using cutting-edge methodologies to answer important contextual questions. My methods include ethnography, in-depth interviewing, and quantitative analysis, with an expertise in experimental methods. Currently, I have been studying the efficacy of generative AI to perform research method tasks such as coding. <br>
