The professional associations of which I am a member have greatly enriched my academic career. Through membership in these associations (and especially their divisions), I have made valuable collaborative relationships, connected with potential students, and made life-long friends.
The associations in which I have been most active are:
The American Society of Criminology
I have been a member of several divisions in the ASC, including the Division on Women and Crime, the Division on People of Color and Crime, the Division on Corrections and Sentencing, the Division on Critical Criminology and Social Justice, and the (pending approval) Division on Queer Criminology.
I have held the following leadership & committee positions in ASC and its divisions:
