Research & Teaching

Published Researcher

As a professor of psychology at Westminster University from 2015-2025, I maintained a feminist-multicultural research agenda that predominantly focuses on sexual objectification, gender, and LGBT considerations. I published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, such as Sex Roles, and Psychology of Sexual Orientation and Gender Diversity.

I also did work that addresses body image, eating behavior, sexual orientation, and gender. Examples of some research publications I've written are below.

In addition to research, I served on the editorial boards for two refereed journals including Psychology of Women Quarterly and Psychology of Sexual Orientation and Gender Diversity.

Example Research Publications

Body Dissatisfaction Among Gay Men: The Roles of Sexual Objectification, Gay Community Involvement and Psychological Sense of Community
