My research interests lie in the Sociology of Sport and the Sociology of the Body. My work addresses a number of research questions although most of my recent work has focused on the body, sport and gender. I am currently exploring why intervening with how our bodies look has become so prevalent at this point in history.
Other recent research interests include:
Sport and social inequality
Masculinities
The social background of National Hockey League players.
Sport injury
NASCAR as a spectacle of consumption
Ideologies surrounding health and fitness.
