Research Interests

My research interests focus on the redevelopment of public housing and urban systems of poverty management. I am especially interested in the institutional and spatial arrangements related to poverty management systems. Within these systems, I investigate how poverty is being dispersed, shifted and reformed within the urban landscape. As a result of these areas of inquiry, I have developed a strong foundation in the areas of revitalization, housing policy, and community development.

Current Projects

An investigation of San Francisco's Hope SF project and the redevelopment of public housing in San Francisco.

Development of a special methodology for assessing the affordable housing inventory in Polk County, Iowa
