Assistant Professor of Sociology

I am a sociologist and race scholar. My work focuses on race, class, and the micro-level of social life. Much of my research is focused on childhood. My new book, False Starts, is an ethnographic account of how young children experience segregated preschools. I also research how white observers interpret race markers and deploy racial prejudice. My research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and the Russell Sage Foundation.
