B.A., University of Wisconsin
M.A., University of Kansas
Ph.D., 2004, University of Kansas

My research focuses on personal and social identity management strategies, stereotyping of self and others, and the strategic deployment of standards. A common theme is my interest in motivated aspects of self-definition. I also study social-cognitive dimensions of political attitudes, status quo maintenance, and social change.
