The rural occupies sturdy stereotypical roles in our geographical imaginations. My aim is to increase rural scholarship in geography and to challenge normalized views of rurality. To that end, my research is concerned with how people co-produce, perceive, and experience rural landscapes. In this work I draw on ideas about place, identity, performance, and practice. The central question I ask is: how do people derive meaning and identity from their engagement with material places? The classes I teach focus on human-environment interactions, qualitative research methods, relational geographies, place, and service-learning. Having the privilege to work in my state’s land grant university, I am committed to public scholarship.
