Thank you for visiting my website. I am an Associate Professor of Sociology and Criminal Justice at Old Dominion University. I am also a writer and I host a YouTube channel. I have three main goals in my professional life:
- Communicate social science ideas to the public:
- A textbook explaining the basics of Cybercrime
- A YouTube channel exploring social science issues
- Op-ed pieces and essays for the general public
- Produce research on the social patterns in the digital environment:
- My current research is focused on identifying the tools and patterns of human trafficking online
- I have also produced research on cyberbullying, #Blacktwitter, and Phishing
- Develop meaningful coursework for students:
- I was the lead developer of Old Dominion University’s Cybercriminology Curriculum
- I created two new courses – “Cybercrime and Cybersecurity“, and “How to Commit a Cybercrime“
