Biography
As a sociologist, researcher, long-term partner and mother of four now mostly grown children, I am interested in theory and practice respective of transitions that highlight both challenges and successes. This means I maintain a strong interest in research practices, academic scholarship and study that is geared toward the ongoing development of integrative societies, hence is supportive of one another while also acknowledging that there is variation, whether it be in our individual learning, states of health, or general well-being.

Research
Research Interests
Sociology, theory and practice, qualitative research in terms of non-mathematical models, acquired knowledge, pragmatist thought, substantive principles, dyadic relations of the human kind and being involving conceptions of identity, self, ego and persona, and the ongoing significance of child-rearing practices express the core and breadth of my interests.
For the dissertation, I am conducting a theoretical research study centered upon sociological work produced at the turn of the twentieth century by Emile Durkheim in connection with the work of Lawrence Krader.
