Research

Across all my work, I seek to understand occupational and organizational dynamics that affect important outcomes, from whether a nurse ignores or answers a patient call for help in the night to whether a soldier suffering from PTSD receives mental healthcare with the full support of his or her commander.

I specialize in qualitative, ethnographic methodologies (e.g., observation and interviewing). Using these methods, I immerse myself in the social worlds of those I study to develop novel theory by focusing on empirical puzzles discovered during fieldwork which existing organizational theory cannot explain.
