At the University of Connecticut, my undergraduate teaching is at the UConn Hartford campus.

My courses include: Methods of Social Research, Sociology of Carework, Sociology of Families, Sociology of Gender, Sociology of Sexualities, and Aging and Society.
Many of my courses are “W” courses, or writing intensive for competency in major fields of study. These courses include writing-specific instruction and supervision of students through a minimum of 15 pages of writing and revision.

My graduate teaching and mentoring are at UConn Storrs. I have taught a graduate course on the sociology of gender and served on 15 Dissertation Committees, 7 Masters Thesis Committees, and 27 Area Exam Committees.

I was the inaugral recipient of the University of Connecticut College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Faculty Achievement Award for Excellence in Teaching (2010) and winner of the Hartford Matters Teaching Grant Competition for my “Sociology of Carework” course submission to fund the study of Hartford community care organizations’ innovations in care (2020).

In the spring of 2024, I used the Hartford Matters Teaching Grant funds to bring my Sociology of Carework students on a field trip to Ebony Horsewomen Inc. (EHI), a horse farm and therapeutic riding center in the city of Hartford that provides care for Hartford residents — including youth and military veterans; they also provide care for more than a dozen horses, the farm’s land, and Keney Park, in which the farm resides.
Former student, Rafe Kimball, published a UConn Today article, “Students Study Care Innovations through a UConn Hartford Matters Teaching Grant.” as part of his independent study related to the course that describes the course and our field trip to EHI in more detail.
