Research and teaching interests:
I enjoy applying critical theory to social dilemmas. I am interested in social movements, critical legal studies, postmodern/deconstructionist philosophy, feminism (eco-feminism/anarcho-feminism, etc.) and ecological rhetorical studies. My thesis was entitled, “A Pragmatist Postmodern Rhetorical Criticism of the Deep Ecology Platform (DEP).” I am most interested in attempting to expose the inner power dynamics of social, political, and philosophical systems.
