I am interested in how health policy problems and trends emerge, are defined, sustained, and changed, and, in particular, how corporations and mass media figure in health and health policy activities.
I teach health policy theory, tobacco control policy, and policy communications, and in the past also taught the advanced qualitative research methods series for doctoral students. I have a passion for encouraging nurses to become more active in health policy and I coordinate the Health Policy specialty in the Master of Science program in the School of Nursing. I also advise doctoral students in sociology.
My current projects involve exploring tobacco industry and media influences on tobacco use, policies, and perceptions, particularly among marginalized groups, the tobacco industry's influence on the U.S. military, and the tobacco industry's corporate social responsibility initiatives.
