About
Research Interests:
My research explores how individuals’ personal relationships and organizational lives influence one another, and how individuals communicatively negotiate these overlapping spaces in ways that enhance or challenge individual, relational, and/or organizational outcomes.
Broadly, my research interests include:
- Careers and retirement
- Gender
- Mixed methods
- Processes of identity management
- Work-life interface
