My research interests broadly revolve around better understanding the complex interplay between individuals and their social contexts over time as they relate to victimization, offending, and health outcomes. More specifically, my primary research areas of interest include: 1) the effects of criminal justice contacts on health; 2) the criminal justice experiences of those with serious mental illness; and 3) the impact of early-life experiences on later victimization or offending.
With the rapid evolution of technology, it is essential to better understand the causes, correlates, and consequences of cybercrime. Through CYBORG, I contribute insights from my areas of research to inform the study of cybercrime and its broader social implications.
