Research
WelcomeThank you for visiting the Research portal! Inquire on in-process research. Discover intermedia projects, community profiles, doctoral coursework and dissertation, master's thesis and papers, team projects, graduate discussion posts, and undergraduate highlights. ThemesI inquire and write about organizational health and well-being, holistic leadership, intermedia narrative, and vocational development to thrive a public commons. Holistic ImperativeI live by vocation to communicate and lead by writing, photography, scholarship, and networking to encourage healing and growth. I integrate multiple frames of knowing. For example, I do not separate "secular" from "spiritual," or reduce persons to a research "subject," single frame, social norm, hegemonic discourse, or contrived system. I find this imperative essential given my themes' social justice overtones.
Research ParadigmI contribute as a scholar-practitioner. I understand research to be multi- variate, channel, modal, directional, value-laden, highly creative, and yet limited in perception, and so needs counterpoints. I notice the world as situated and systemic, and draw on guiding principles to reconcile accountings in between the compelling ethos, "all may be permissable, but not all benefits" (1 Cor. 10:23). I care about praxis and voice. I regard research participants as co-contributors and utilize supportive interviewing, ethnomethodology, and narrative. I seek wisdom and foresight (James 1:5), and enjoy writing about implications and reform. I produce creative intermedia content, and I write.
Consulting ResearchI develop organizations and consult leaders via narrative, intermedia, communication, holistic leadership, and vocational development to succeed in deliverables and organizational health and well-being. Applied GoalsI want to write/publish books, teach, direct, and/or develop curriculum for writing, holistic leadership, and organizational health and well-being, mentor graduate and international learners, design hybrid higher education programs, influence health communication reform, and collaborate cross-sector to train people with my genres.
