Much of my work in academia marches to the mantra of continuous improvement.
I define myself as a “productive critic,” a term coined by Robert Ivie to mean a scholar who writes to improve the conditions that they find lacking and problematic. My research aims to offer creative solutions, identify alternatives, and pinpoint texts and processes that are successful at addressing injustice. I have a specific interest in disability nonprofit organizations that use their collective voice to promote disability pride, work for rights, and build community.
